Artist Statement:
My paintings reflect a dual interest in art and sociology. I began painting in graduate school and have combined art and sociology throughout my career, exhibiting in traditional art venues as well as academic conferences. These paintings express a sensitivity toward community life and cultural expression informed by years of research and community activism.
Artwork:
The painting shows racial justice protesters confronting a line of police officers. The protesters are hoping for an end to police shootings of unarmed black citizens.
