Synthia Saint James (American, b. 1949), "With Honors" is a hand drawn limited edition color lithograph(not a photo reproduction or digital print) printed using hand lithography techniques on archival Arches paper, 100% acid free. "With Honors" is a rainbow colored figurative composition rendered in a contemporary style (reminiscent of Jacob Lawrence-Migration), depicting a multicultural graduation ceremony viewed from the audience perspective, with colorfully dressed men, women and children seated in stadium seating as graduates in white caps and gowns walk in procession. WITH HONORS excites the viewer with its bright, vivid shades of orange, yellow, red, blue, purple, browns, lime green, dark green, burgundy, gray, white and black. Details include African style striped fabric, full brimmed hats, deep green seating area and intense blue sky. An inspiring scene honoring the achievements of those committed to the importance of pursuing higher education.
