The Wiz is of my favorite Broadway musicals, so of course I had to honor Haitian born Broadway Baby - Geoffrey Holder. Born on August 1st - the late, great Geoffrey Holder designed the costumes and directed himself into two Tony’s for The Wiz! With a bigger than life persona, booming voice and mega watt smile, he touched every corner of the entertainment biz as a Bond villain, painter, dancer, 7up Spokesperson and of course iconic roles in Annie and Boomerang. #august #leo #thewiz #geoffreyholder #annie #dancer #broadway #boomerang #costume #director https://www.instagram.com/p/CSEN2a4LhCy/?utm_medium=tumblr

LISTEN TO YOUR SPIRIT
“We are too quick to put labels on things. It is my profession. I get up and paint. Everyone wants to put a label on it, but I am a free spirit, so I fight against that.” -- GeoffreyHolder

#GeoffreyHolder , #BoscoeHolder's brother, was a dancer, actor , and multidisciplinary artist. He was probably most remembered for designing the costumes for #TheWiz and playing #BaronSamedi. It was a lot of fun to paint a full body this time, which I thought was appropriate for a dancer. He had a really regal aura, which I hope I captured. #trinidadian #westindianhistorymonth #dancer #choreographer #dance #actor #blackhistorymonth #gouache #body #portrait #figurestudy #illustration

Today’s #28daysofblackfashion blog post and my #fbf is dedicated to the #chameleon, the Renaissance man, Mr. Geoffrey Holder. He was a true artist mastering dance, art, performance and design. Click 🔗 in bio to read more about this extraordinary man on my blog. And SWIPE to see me in awe of him at the NYPL exhibit. I’m standing in front of photos and costumes from one of my all time favorite musicals, “The Wiz” which Geoffrey Holder directed, produced, choreographed, and designed costumes. . . . . #bhm #blackhistory #fashiondesign #costumedesign #blackhistorymonth #geoffreyholder #design #theater

#sacredSunday 🌹Black Love Matters. •••••••••• I used to have this "dating rule" of not wanting to be with another artist. As a creative, I was like "can't deal with two divas..." but how wrong was I? I've recently come to experience some of the most beautiful interactions I've ever had with men artists. #newMoon #newseeds #intentions #heartsDesire #mirrrorMagic #reflections #love #blacklove #blacklovematters #blackpower #blackpowercouples #blackexcellence #balance #reciprocation #carmendelavallade #geoffreyholder #carmenandgeoffrey
