Guest Speaker
Sedrick huckaby
“I believe my paintings are done in a language more closely in tune with my soul than the language of my tongue.”
Sedrick is an artist and art teacher to many, including the surprisingly gifted George W. Bush. Born and residing in Fort Worth, Texas, Sedrick expresses themes of faith, family, community, and heritage through art. He is best known for his massive paintings. His largest work, A Love Supreme, is 80 feet long and took 8 years to complete.
Sedrick’s works are on display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Fine arts in Boston, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, The Art Institute of Chicago, the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, and the Blanton Museum of Art.
Sedrick is husband to fellow artist Letitia Huckaby and father to three children, Rising Sun, Halle Lujah, and Rhema Rain.
