Ervene Boyd’s collection will stay in Alter Ego for the entirety of November and December, taking us into the new year. Ervene says of her art:

My paintings reveal themselves to me as my emerging creative person all my life. I find emotions out of joy, delight, wonder and even sorrow to be apart of the sensory experience of color and texture. I consider my art a visual expression of my poetry.
