Use only ONE piece of art to convince folks to follow you 🥰
Acrylic painting, side-by-side juxtaposition of two views out a window onto the the street. On the left is Nazi Germany; a swastica flag flies on a grey building while the window out which we view holds a defiant Jewish menorah, candles burning. The right window looks out on the glamorous and ominous Trump tower while on the window sill sits a defiant lit LGBTQ+ rainbow candle.
