Georgia Speller

Georgia Speller (1931–1988) was an African American artist known for her colorful, dynamic drawings and paintings on paper.

She learned to draw at a young age, but did not hone her craft until she was encouraged to do so by her husband, artist Henry Speller.

These orgies often show the Moon and Sun simultaneously in the sky, which has been interpreted as implying a duration, not an instant.

Art historian Xenia Zed saw in Speller's work "the revisionist feminist of the nineties; the sexual exhibitionists of the sixties and seventies; the romantic/erotic/pornographic gaze; the symbolic that can range from thoughts on African retention to psychoanalysis.

"[5] Speller's work often includes architectural paintings and drawings of houses, train stations, and cityscapes.
