“R.I.P. Trayvon (78/365)”
Painting, 2012

“It took me awhile to decide to do this piece. But realizing this is one of the biggest news makers of the year, and another tragic story of losing one of our boys too soon, I had to include this beautiful photo. Our teen boys have so much coming at them. If not racial inspired ignorance, it’s someone within our community trippin. There is a Trayvon experience everyday for a mom and dad. Regardless of what happens legally, there is good in this experience… We can come together when we really want to. Protect your boys y.all!”

I got to meet this artist! He looks like Common, loves to talk about what he does and creates some amazing work.
