Yes He Can

This image of an African American mother carrying her son piggyback with the Obama pin on her jacket was created to empower, inspire, and uplift individuals from all backgrounds, particularly African Americans, by showcasing in this mixed media painting the rich history, resilience, and achievements of the African American community. Through this painting, I aim to encourage unity, celebrate diversity, and promote cultural understanding. By reflecting the journey of Africans in America, I strive to create a visual image that sparks conversations, fosters empathy, and drives positive change in society. The ultimate goal of this artwork is to ensure that every individual feels seen, heard, and valued, and to contribute to a more inclusive and equitable world for all. I believe that socially and politically engaged art can break down barriers, challenge perceptions, and unite communities, paving the way for a brighter and more empathetic future.
