Squash
By Charles Humes Jr.
Experience the bold exhibition titled Squash - consisting of 20 watercolor paintings and an assortment of drawings and mix-media works by painter and muralist Charles Humes Jr.
Humes depicts images of Florida City and Homestead’s agricultural farming fields, featuring migrant workers harvesting several crops, including squash. The paintings highlighted in Squash are studies of Humes’ seemingly landscape view – the endless panoramic crop fields, rows of vast brilliant greens and the golden hues of squash.
