Shades of Perseverance

Shades of Perseverance is depicted with the layers of brush techniques, shades of brown against the solid background. When I was a teenager from 1989 - 1996, I implemented not only the shades of perseverance, but continued to move forward on graduating from each educational institution that I attended between 1989 - 1997. 


According to my research, “the exploration of struggle and survival is vividly encapsulated in a palette dominated by earthy browns. This color scheme evokes a sense of resilience, reflecting the harsh realities faced by individuals and communities as they navigate through adversity. The various shades of brown symbolize the complexities of life, from the deep, rich tones that represent strength and endurance to the lighter hues that suggest hope and renewal. Each nuance tells a story of perseverance, illustrating how people confront challenges and emerge transformed.”

Creative Entertainment

  Quote found on the Internet  “The 1990s marked a transformative era for the entertainment scene in Washington, D.C., where the convergence of political dynamics and cultural expression significantly influenced artistic endeavors. As the capital of the United States, the city served as a vibrant backdrop for political dialogue, which was often reflected in the creative outputs of its artists. Various forms of media, including documentaries, performance art, and literature, emerged as powerful tools for addressing urgent social issues, fostering a deeper engagement with the public and prompting critical discussions on contemporary matters.” I was a student during the 1990s up until the late 1990s.
