Black History Week revisited

I know this is the weblog equivalent of posting your kid's pictures on the fridge and forcing visitors to admire them, but just take a look at these CD covers they made as a result of your suggestions, and feel very proud. I do.

Scroll down for track listing. If your track did not make the final cut, it was nothing personal, just constraints of money and time (ie they are five years old and have the attention span of guppies.)


Miriam Makeba


















Ray Charles

















Bob Marley




















Nina Simone

Picasso would be PROUD. Do you know, he said it took him YEARS to learn to draw like a child.

These are wonderful, Annie.

P.S. I love children's art. I wish more folks made use of them.
