PORTRAITURE OF DEATH By Anthony Alden Vines

Image
  I remember when my brother died 10 years ago; his death brought tears to my soul. I was engaged in my normal busy schedule and heard an unearthly voice that said “call home”. I stopped immediately what I was doing, picked up the phone, and called my mom. My nephew picked up the phone and said they found Uncle Marvin at his home unconscious and rushed him to the hospital. I knew the end was coming; he had been diagnosed six months ago with terminal lung cancer and fought a valiant battle to survive with dignity.

He chose to die in control and the comfort of his home. I hung up the phone, composed myself and jumped in my car to make the two-hour ride to Toledo. God is great! No one thought to call me and tell me that he was fighting for his life in intensive care, yet the spiritual connection between m...

My Reflection Open edition Lithograph 18x24 The MarVines Art Gallery is part of a nonprofit organization established in 1997 in memory of the late Artist Marvin Vines, known in the art world as MarVines, who combined two disciplines, art and education, to convey the plight of African Americans. MarVines’mentors recognized his artistic talents very early in life. He enrolled in art classes at the Toledo Museum of Art as a child. He continued to refine his natural talent by graduating with a master’s degree in art education.

His mastery of multiple media, including acrylics, collages, colour transparencies, pen and ink drawings, leathering and sculpturing, is evidenced by an inventory of several hundred candid and exceptional works of art. The gallery fosters the creative development of artists in need who desire to showcase their talents...
