“The dignity of the individual …is a predominant theme in Adams’ work. His figures are iconic; their musculature is defined to the point of exaggeration, suggesting prolonged toil and struggle. They seem inward… and they seem larger than life, so that one wants to know their stories and learn from them.”
Neptune Washington is one of eight lithographs by pre-eminent African American artists included in the Resounding Heart Portfolio, published by Hand Graphics Studio, a press founded by Ron Adams in Santa Fe.
