"Black Plum" by Craig Carter

Black Plum embodies the pleasure, the intensity, the comfort and security in a connection so deep and so real.  Artist Craig Carter uses mixed media on canvas to create this “speaks-to-me” masterpiece which was influenced by a South African poem that conveys the black unity between man and woman.  

The bold lines and vibrant colors show the intensity of emotions and expressions. The red border symbolizes love, strength and passion.  The black plum pays tribute to the adage: “The blacker the berry, sweeter the juice.” This artwork of native Houstonian can be found at exhibits throughout the world.
