Beschreibung

This is a special dedication to the people who are searching for the spark that lives inside of them because we know we are what it takes to light up this world. While being at home schooling my four children Kyiden, Amari, Jayda and Jordan; they have inspired me to write and illustrate children's books. Spending my time with them has shown me how important it is to establish a bond with each individual child. I wish for my children to read this book and know that it's their love that keeps me going. Everything I do is for you. Love DAD

KE'MONTE' FIGGS ............................................................... Ke'Monte' Figgs is a self-taught Cincinnati native who loves to depict the emotional experiences of his people through black art. Bringing an impact to the youth in his community and positively influencing children to discover their true potential by tapping into their hidden talents is what he hopes to accomplish. Whether it's painting, writing poetry, singing, dancing, videography, music production he believes there are so many different pathways our black youth can turn to rather than the streets. Art has always been a part of him. As a kid, he found it easier to express himself by drawing and coloring. Rather than talking about his problems with being bullied by other children, he drew about them. Growing up, he was nurtured by those who saw his potential and developed him into the artist he is today. Inspired by his art teacher Angela Mulcahy at North College Hill High School, he dreamed of attending Columbus College of Art and Design to be a cartoon animator. While, Figgs pursued a different path, eventually God "trampled' on his course and reminding him of who he was created to be. Before he knew it, he picked up a paint brush and began expressing himself with a voice that was heard like ever before. KeMonte is an original member of Black Art Speaks and the owner of Youthwings. Black Art Speaks non-profit supporting Artist in reaching their goals.
