I have an offer to make to the Artmajeur community:
ANY PRINTS OF MY WORK THAT YOU BUY WITHIN THE NEXT 60 DAYS, I WILL DONATE 100% OF THE PROFITS TO THE UKRAINIAN RELIEF FUND!
The man in this painting may not be real, but the civilians in Ukraine are not. Please, help me to help them.
He sits quietly... and waits. He waits for the days work to begin...for the ride out to the fields...where the mind-numbing work of the "cotton picker" is forever waiting.
He waits for the foreman to yell "quit'n time"..and once again..he can come home to rest his weary bones. And...as the hours tick past..and the lantern burns low...he waits...for the inevitable.
This is an airbrushed rendering of a photograph taken by Ben Shahn in 1933.
