1. MOTHERS/S0NS: Tribute to Michael Brown
Like most civil human beings today, I am devastated by the inhumane treatment of Black bodies. During the days and months surrounding this tragedy, I worked on this painting. In a photo of Mr. Brown, I noticed how his graduation robe seemed to fit strangely, and doing more research for the painting I discovered his high school only had one cap and gown for all seniors to take their yearbook photo. That stayed with me as I completed the final background.
