During five years of research I collected extensive data on children’s experiences in the Afro-Brazilian religion Candomblé. Particular aspects of Candomblé are the devotion to spiritual entities, which possess the mediums during systematic rituals. Candomblé and the co-existence with spirits are an everyday fact, and this relation is experienced in daily life. The process of constituting meaning of possession is experienced over the years; as children experience this from their first years of life, the development of the idea of possession occurs concomitantly with the process of self-making.

Lesson #1 with Misty Mawn.
This is my 2nd ever portrait drawing.
I have just finished reading, 'Hang a Thousand Trees with Ribbons', by Ann Rinaldi, about Phillis Wheatley, the first woman black poet to get published.
This was my interpretation of her. Although, it probably looks more like a man, no? oh well, practice, practice, practice, right Misty!! smile.
I have to work on the eye thing and the nose thing. Especially the eyes, they give me trouble.
