30 x 40 Acrylic original art.

Two boys with eyes cast upward can be observed. Light shines down from above which may lead the viewer to assume that the boys are watching God. But with a deeper look, the viewer should notice the single halo, symbolizing unity and holy innocence, behind their heads and the golden band of emanating light surrounding them. Studies have shown that Black children are seen as significantly older and less innocent than their white counterparts. Black children, especially boys, too often suffer the consequences of these erroneous beliefs as they are not given the protection that assumed childhood provides. I chose this title because I believe God is found in the vulnerable, thus, it is the viewer who is watching God.
