Requiem in color(s)

With the recent deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner at the hands of American police officers.  I have begun to reflect on these events as well as the responses to them.  As I collect my thoughts, I have started to paint about loss, about reflection, about healing.  This series will evolve as my opinion about what took place evolve.  I grapple with this as an American, as an African American, as a mother of a black male.
