A hallmark of her work is the juxtaposition of vivid colors with a sense of balance. She creates abstracts, cityscapes, florals, still life, multi-media collages, and exotically themed landscapes. Her human figures suggest the style of folk or cubist abstract art, and rhythm and movement are key elements in her work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to painting on canvas, she has a successful business, “Pleasin’ Honi,” painting on clothing. Jazz themes, flowers, abstracts, stylized faces, and colorful animals are a few of the images she paints onto pre-constructed clothing and shoes. She often bleaches and distresses denim pieces and reconstructs them into whole new articles of clothing. She creates one-of-a-kind pieces of clothing art for each client.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 1950s, formal art lessons were not available to a child of color in Richmond; everything Faithe has learned has been through experimentation and practice on her own. She is excited to have arrived at a point where her art is appreciated and collected by others outside of her village.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to Crossroads Art Center, Faithe exhibits her work at several galleries in Richmond and in the Black History Museum of History and Culture. She has had numerous pieces selected for juried shows and art auctions, has been featured in Virginia Living magazine, and participated in the Richmond Symphony Orchestra League’s Designer House in 2018. Her painting, “Lady Link,” was chosen as the signature piece for the Richmond Chapter of The Links Incorporated 10th bi-annual art auction held at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in 2019. Many of her paintings are in private collections throughout the country\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca

I often paint the human figure, cityscapes, and florals so this series of paintings was a cleansing of the pallet so to speak. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faithe Norrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40226653569105,"sku":"","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/products\/FaitheNorrell_BeigeandBlueDance_AcryliconCanvas_24x36__395.jpg?v=1666804525"},{"product_id":"faithe-norrell-title-beige-black-and-blue-nude","title":"Faithe Norrell Title: Beige, Black and Blue Nude","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFaithe Norrell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBeige, Black and Blue Nude\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcrylic on Canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e24\" x 36\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e$395\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faithe Norrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40226662744145,"sku":"","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/products\/FaitheNorrell_Beige_BlackandBlueNude_AcryliconCanvas_24x36__395.jpg?v=1666804905"},{"product_id":"faithe-norrell-title-birth","title":"Faithe Norrell Title: Birth","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFaithe Norrell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBirth\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcrylic on Canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e24\" x 36\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e$395\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faithe Norrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40226666152017,"sku":"","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/products\/FaitheNorrell_Birth_24x36_AcryliconCanvas__395.jpg?v=1666805068"},{"product_id":"faithe-norrell-title-five-flowers","title":"Faithe Norrell Title: Five Flowers","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFaithe Norrell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFive Flowers\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcrylic on Canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e18\" x 24\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e$275\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faithe Norrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40226670116945,"sku":"","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/products\/FaitheNorrell_FiveFlowers_AcryliconCanvas_18x24__275.jpg?v=1666805236"},{"product_id":"faithe-m-norrell-title-sorority-sisters","title":"Faithe M Norrell Title: Sorority Sisters","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFaithe M Norrell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSorority Sisters\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcrylic on Canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e24\" x 36\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e$850\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faithe Norrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49579993202990,"sku":null,"price":850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/files\/FaitheNorrell_WebImage.jpg?v=1731593985"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/collections\/Faithe_Norrell_Web_Image.jpg?v=1568844556","url":"https:\/\/www.crossroadsartcenter.com\/collections\/faithe-norrell-1\/flora.oembed","provider":"Crossroads Art Center","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
