Cookie Davis lives and works in Jacksonville, Florida. Ms. Davis
began drawing classes when she was seven and through high school
and college worked with charcoal, oil and pastels. Then she had
the good fortune to explore three dimensional work which has led
to her success as a sculptor. Ms. Davis has participated in both
solo exhibitions and group shows throughout the south. And, she
has work in private and corporate collections both nationally
and internationally.
Cookie
says of her work, "My sculptures represent many facets of
womanhood and ethnic backgrounds. They are black, or brown, or
white, they are the colors of the world. I create through their
body language a message of dignity, hope and love.
I am often asked where I get my ideas, the answer is, everywhere!
Every day people or events catch my attention and become an image
and a "story." Nothing stays the same, everyday is an
adventure, life is a kaleidoscope of happenings and I find joy
in telling stories through my art." |
