I had to draw this for my Media & Color class in Spring '10
Artist Statement...
- Kashmir Williams
- Exploring the world through the lens of a camera, leaving everything else to the imagination. Using charcoal and graphite to illustrate whatever comes to mind. My art is one of the things connecting me to my peace, liberating me to express an extension of myself. I find an escape in my art. I can’t bare the silence of a blank page so I use the sketch of my pencil, the careful yet care free shading that illuminates the page with iridescent colors of my choosing to give it a voice, my voice. The irony I found in my art is that the only limits there are, are the ones I place on myself. I refuse to limit my artistic expression.

Past, Present and Future (My first tattoo design)
Many times I have been asked to design someone's tattoo.
I was at a tap dance showcase rehearsal and one of my team mates
said ...
"Kash, I want you to design my first tattoo."
I said..
"ok.."
(not thinking much of it. I honestly thought
I wasn't going to hear anything else
about this tattoo.)
Next thing you know, she's bringing me a
pencil and some paper.!
I came up with two very similar designs.
She went with the first one.
(Design #2)
Byrds of a Feather...
My husband and I decided to get matching tattoos
so, I came up with a design that represented
our unity, friendship and love.
Inspired by: Our last name...

Made of Bone
"Skeleton you are my friend but you are made of bone.
And you have no flesh and blood running through you to
help protect the bone. Skeleton we have been friends for
years and you have seen me through some trials and
tribulations and some tears but everybody things I'm weird.."
-Kate Nash
Funny Bone
Compressed Charcoal and Eraser
First I covered the paper in charcoal, then I used an eraser to sketch out the subject which happend to be a bone.
