This is an African Watercolor wallhanging. It's constructed using 3" squares of many different types of African cotton, woven, and mudcloth fabrics. The beading is African beads and cowrie shells. The original designer Lisa Shepard-Steward from New York, who I had the opportunity to work with several years ago, has been a big inspiration in the area of designing. I have taken her design and added a twist which she encourage all to do. This wallhanging is displayed in the teacher's lounge at Alain Locke Charter School in Chicago, Illinois and is enjoyed by all.
