about Pepper Jelly Lady - Signed

Pepper Jelly Lady conjures up this African-American artist’s past in the rural South.

Bearden’s layering and collage compositional methods convey the way memories can be vitally specific and vague at the same time.

About The Medium: Lithograph

A print created using flat stones or metal plates. The artist creates a lithograph by drawing an image directly onto the printing element using materials like lithograph crayons or special grease pencils. After this, the drawing is transferred from the plate to the paper in multiples. A lithograph will not have dots when examined with a magnifying glass.
