Ekko Block.. The Echo of my culture...on my Block! Sneak peak at my first pair of earrings...Keisha ❤️

Carleen De Sözer born in Birmingham, England in the late seventies her only destination was to live the life of an artist. "I create art, firstly for myself I enjoy tapping into that creative space in my imagination that allows me to turn thought into physical pictures. Sharing my art is a natural part of the creative process, we build on everything that exist...a thought, an idea...a feeling. I believe that my art is a re-creation of every visual and thought that I have received from the creative flow that is LIFE". Carleen De Sözer is widely regarded as one of London’s most skilled and diverse aerosol and airbrush artists. She has found a place on the International street art scene with her highly appealing Afrocentric, Afrofuturistic and often golden paintings. Carleen’s distinct work can be seen all across London. Her most popular murals to date include Golden Utopia, You Have The Keys, Golden Era Hip Hop Raised Me and Grime Lords.

I love peering through shop windows. And I delight in capturing objects reflected from the outside/mixed with the inside to form what I call a "collage of images".

So I was excited about this week's FlickrFriday theme: WINDOW

I thought the wreath was stunning--and the collage effect doesn't show the total beauty--but I like the photo anyway...

When I cut my Locs I thought my hair would turn into a nice "Angela Davis/Kathleen Cleaver Fro--like I had in my younger days.

That didn't happen--so I take photos of others rocking lovely Fros.

You see them all around.♪

Rocking her 70s Afro.

I noticed this gentleman's beautiful, colorful cultural outfits a few times. Then I noticed that he was selling sugar cane & green water coconuts. As I approached him for a photo--I noticed a resemblance to someone else I photographed in the past. Come to find out it was his brother "Royal King: www.flickr.com/photos/jaygeeoh/52426519706/in/album-72177...

First thing I saw was that fabulous Fro. I waited until this beauty finished her meal outside of Suya on Franklin Avenue, Crown Heights to ask for a photo.

I didn't know at the time that she is a well-known personality who can be seen dancing throughout the city:
