Cat and Dragonfly Paper Cutting by Ira Blount. Best described as a multi-talented artisan Ira Blount's work spans everything from basket weaving to calligraphy. He died this year at the good old age of 101 and his obituary is amazing. I aspire to be as active through out life as this man was. · Read his obituary here: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.legacy.com/obituaries/washingtonpost/obituary.aspx%3fn=ira-blount&pid=196277663 · · See the original image here: https://anacostia.si.edu/collection/object/acm_2011.0004.0109 · · · #irablount #catsofinstagram #cat #blackcat #dragonfly #papercrafts #basketweaving #artisan #artist #memphis #washingtondc #calligraphy #longlife #centenarian #africanamerican #blackmen #community #art #tuskegee #craft #anacostia #smithsonianmuseum https://www.instagram.com/p/CJbiG2YHqeg/?igshid=quyq4f28bjhh
