JOY, 2021, 18”x24”, Ink on paper

While creating this piece I was thinking about what it has been like to live s a Black person this past year. I thought about the fact that for a lot of us, our joy is felt in numbers, when we are together we are loud, boisterous and joyful. This piece speaks to the unencumbered joy that we feel when we finally can come together once more.
