1​/​2 of diptych. It took me 3 years to complete this painting and the rise of Black Live Matters, Covid-19​/​Politics. I saw the image of a starving Congo Boy, photo by Annie Liebovitz in a National Geographic. The story line noted the struggles and famine in this third world country as the children’s will to live and look towards the future was definitive light in their souls. Beauty, image of a African Fashion Model who is also starving to be thin, accepted, overlooks the young Congo Boy, (who is celebrating his culture.). They are both the same. Children struggling for a brighter and stable future. All paintings are sold ready to hang.
