In Black and White podcast hosts Dr. Terrance Dean and Scot Kirk talk to Columbus artist Queen Brooks about her most recent works, which were inspired by the pandemic and by the current social and political turmoil in the United States.

Brooks — whose works comprise drawings, paintings, print making and mixed media —  said she wants to create pieces that foster hope in these troubled times. She also reflects on her career as an artist, and why she finds inspiration in the talents of today's younger artists.

Finally, Brooks gives advice on collecting art for those just starting out, or those who don't have a lot of money but want to expand their collections.
