...More Women Artists You Should Know

I was recently included on an ESSENCE.COM listing featuring  10 Female African American Artists To Know (see #9).  I am flattered and genuinely amazed at my inclusion, but I think we might do well to expand that list .  Creativity gives us the opportunity to create infinite pies so we can all get a slice.  So, I've decided to compile my own "To Know" list, and since K" is the eleventh letter of the alphabet, my selections number accordingly.  These women of the African continent and Diaspora are but a few shining examples of our limitless intelligence and creativity.
