Heavy is the Crown

This is a piece that reflects the burden of the Black bourgeoisie and the effect upon the souls of these black folk. It is abstract but representational of the burden. The images in the top hats embody the current stresses of Black America. In addition, the three images are signals of distress. The medium is acrylic and pencil on heavy paper.
