The motive for this peace to push the feeling of Power. I created this during the peak of the Black Lives Matter protests. Being a POC creative myself I felt the need to paint this peace because it gave me sense of strength and hope during a time of civil unrest. The intense look of the young woman and the stark contrast of the black and yellow colors really make this piece special.

 

“We've got to face the fact that some people say you fight fire best with fire, but we say you put fire out best with water. We say you don't fight racism with racism. We're gonna fight racism with solidarity.” ~ Fred Hampton
