Valaida Snow

I watched a documentary on this remarkable woman a few years ago and her story stuck with me, so much so that I wanted to pay homage to her in my own way.  I present to you the beautiful and talented Mrs. Valaida Snow!

The photo that inspired this picture didn't have a trumpet in it (which was her signature instrument of choice) so I decided to add it in and put it where I think Mrs. Snow thought it ought to be... on a pedestal!
