Description
"In Ginsburg We Trust"
A digital oil painting on canvas of the late Honorable Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whom I adored with all my heart and whose recent death devastated me not only because we lost a great women's and gender rights advocate but because our current administration knows no bounds in their desire to corrupt the Supreme Court of the United States. Based loosely on a photograph, I used light and shadow to depict Honorable Ginsburg's features, and a rainbow color palette to pay tribute to her having been the first Supreme Court Justice to preside over a same-sex marriage. I finished my painting with a light golden metallic wash because she was worth a hundred times her weight in gold (which frankly, still wouldn't be enough as tiny as she was), and added a scratched effect to reflect her feisty and fearless personality. You were dearly loved and will certainly be sorely missed, Notorious RBG. Please visit my Portraiture art gallery to see more of my portrait artwork, and by all means don't forget to vote. Do it for Ruth.
