Charles McGee (December 15, 1924 – February 4, 2021) was an African-American artist and educator known for creating paintings, assemblages, and sculptures. His artwork is in the collections of the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. He also had several large-scale public works in the city of Detroit.

A relief sculpture is a sculpture in which shapes, forms and detail pop out from a flat supporting background, usually meant to be hung on a wall.

We are making relief sculptures inspired by the art of Charles McGee.  We will need black paper, white paper, a black marker, scissors, and glue.
