The Resilience and Determination of Florence Price
This painting, inspired by Florence Price’s orchestral masterpiece Ethiopia’s Shadow in America, was unveiled at the Fort Collins Symphony’s February 2024 concert. Florence Price’s music tells a story of resilience, determination, and hope. As an artist, a woman, and a Black American, I felt a deep connection to her journey, her struggles, and her triumphs.
In creating this piece, I immersed myself in her music, letting her compositions guide my brushstrokes and color palette. Price’s music captures the complexity of the African American experience—the shadows of struggle and the radiant light of hope and perseverance. My painting reflects this duality, honoring Florence's legacy and the strength of the people she wrote about.
