Loud and Clear
Loud and Clear (oil on panel) represents the loud and clear voice needed in this election year. This focused voice is one of action for equality and social justice. This activist oil painting is meant to inspire viewers to utilize their voices and address the needs of our nation in an immediate way. We need to say enough of the misogyny and racial injustice, enough of the children in cages, enough of the deaths to COVID-19 due to misinformation. This year has been devastating for many reasons including the loss of so many to coronavirus. Now is the time to use our voices and visual power as artists to communicate our ideas about how we want to shape our country for the future. Now is the time.
