I am adding here sort of small photos of four of the ethnic series of oil paintings I Gloria Poole created/ drew/painted . I began painting that idea in year 2007 and have continued to add paintings to it, as I see ideas of costumes or hair styles, or skin color. However, none of these are real people. They are all made up people. My mission for the ethnic paintings was to hopefully show that regardless of skin color, style or manner/ expense of clothing or costume [native dress], language, customs, that GOD in heaven created all according to Genesis chapter one in King James Holy Bible, and loves all according to John 3:16.. I have painted about 20-25 oil paintings in that series; but I have many many more paintings than just that series, and literally hundreds of sketches in watercolors, inks, acrylics, powdered pastels, charcoal, pencils, goauche, tempera.

Copyright: I Gloria Poole, who was born in state of Georgia but currently living in Missouri, own all rights to the art I create. I am a white, Christian, single woman, who is a mother of two grown daughters [but no sons] and a grandmother of minor children. I paint and sketch and draw frequently. I add some of them to my blogs but not all art I have created over the past 20 years is on blogs or in public. Generally speaking, I have the originals on canvas, paper, bristol board , sketch books. Unfortunately, a few of my paintings from yrs 1999-2001 were stolen from me when I put them into storage off the coast of Georgia, [to travel some and thought they would be there when I got back]. I have signed my oil paintings and acrylic also [but I don't often create acrylic paintings on canvas] with my first name, Gloria, written in formal writing script on an edge of painting. And most of the time, I also sign my full name and the year and the name I gave the painting on the back of it.
There is a photo of me on some of my blogs that shows me sitting in my front room in front of some of these paintings, so they will be familiar to some people for that reason. That photo is clearly marked. I selected these paintings precisely because they are known to be paintings I painted in that series and were or are displayed on other sites/ domains/ blogs of mine intermittently since yr 2007.
I also added an oil painting of a Muslim woman that is that series to my blog at http://gloriapoole.wordpress.com today.
Other blogs of mine that I add art I create too, are:

And other blogs I own and create for the PROLIFE cause. So also see those. And remember each blog is unique, so to see most of the art I post publicly, you would have to look at all my blogs. I do not conform them. All art I create is of the sort that any age group or nationality could view it.
