Early on in my experiments with different applications of the Silk-Featherbrush technique used for this artwork, I discovered it was adaptable enough to employ either as abstract works by themselves or as elements to enhance themes and subjects. Adaptability was important here because I wanted to acknowledge the tragedy of the case involving the subject jogger, Ahmaud Arbery, but also honor aspects of his life not defined by his death. Or the way he died. Photos of him on the internet indicate someone with a cheerful disposition and a big beautiful smile.
I started out with the idea of creating a frame worthy of someone who, according to his father Marcus Arbery Sr., had to be reminded to keep most of his paycheck for himself and stop giving away most of his money to help other people.

Thank you Danny. The problem is one people are struggling to correct all around the world. Sooner or later we've got to get right.

A touching tribute through art and a reminder that we all have an obligation to call out racism anywhere it still exists and evil where ever it is perpetrated.
