A VIEW AT LARGE: who is the artist?



"Candice Swanepoel's  beauty and poise brings to me, and others a sense of style, of freedom from illusion while herself being the created illusion of perfection. That is a powerful gift, a burden, or perhaps of little consequence to her, but to people of color it is a major subject of conversation, and front and center in the spiritual work of identifying self, establishing womanhood, and being a part of one's tribe, one's history and one's need to connect with one's ancestors in the present state of being a conquered people!" - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 2.8.13


the art of a Woman
Candice Swanepoel

"I love this artist's rendition of Candice Swanepoel, the woman! It respects the principals of her mystique, the fierceness within her Being, and studies the practical applications of her sensual powers, and explores the possibilities of maturing in an industry repelled by maturing beauty, and a world fearful of the advantages of being a Wise Old Woman!" - Alowan Chanteh Inyan Wichasha  2.8.13
