Art Inspiration: Creative Africa

Creative Africa is a wonderful exhibit at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. For anyone who appreciates fashion, photography, textiles, and fiber art, this is a must-see…The closing date is September 25, 2016, so there’s still time to get there. Below are photos from this event. The second one is a picture of a young lady who was nice enough to allow me to take a picture of her lovely outfit that blended right in with this exhibit. She told me that her friend, a designer himself, made it. I’ve included his website so you can see more of his creations. (Demestik by Reuben Reuel @ www.demestik.us)
