Nthenya R - June 2020

Nthenya R. Acrylic Painting on 24”x 46” Canvas. Completed June 2020

This painting was based on a picture I took of Ruth Nthenya and my attempt at turning it into a painting. It was both a gift and a test of my ability.

A song that comes to mind is “Get Up, Stand Up” by Bob Marley. In my mind, there’s a strong correlation between the art and the song’s lyrics.
