RBG 2
RBG (2nd edition). In this piece, I portrayed Ruth as she looked in these most recent years, “aged and saged” as one of my friends says. You’ll notice she has a stern, very direct look on her face. This is the look I imagine she would give to each of us as she tells us not to give up hope at her passing, but to continue the fight just as she always has.
The background comic for this piece is the #1 issue of the 1941 Wonder Woman comic. I chose this comic to honor the legendary legal warrior and feminist super hero that RGB was. Even though she was not an Amazon in stature like Wonder Woman, her feats were of the greatest Amazonian stature possible. Layering the 1941 Wonder Woman comics with white acrylic paint, I use negative space to make the image.
