Douglass was quoted as saying, “I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong." Herring is also the featured artist of the month exhibiting in the gallery at ARTworks. A specialist in framing, an educator and craftsman, he frequently exhibits and speaks at festivals and cultural events throughout the Southeast U.S. His work includes wood carving, collectible and functional ceramic and wooden boxes, and a wide variety of mixed media creations which often use found materials such as driftwood, leather, glass or fabric. He is noted for his use of Adinkra symbols and customized designs. For information on his gallery, his art or to make an appointment for framing please visit www.GreenHerringArtAndFraming.com. End
