| Introduction | Hello, my name is Aaron Douglas, but you may know me as the "father of African American art". At an early age I was exposed to art by my mother, and as I grew older, I became an artist myself. After I graduated high school, I went to college and earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts . After that I decided to move to Harlem, New York. Harlem was known at the time for having an artistic African American community, and I wanted to be apart of that. Soon after I arrived, I became involved in the Harlem Renaissance. There I could express my talents, and compassion for what I loved most. Art. |
| Interests | Modernism and African art |
