Divided We Stand Rebecca H Pollack

This piece is done in colored pencil. The flag symbol and eagle symbol represent our country. The two elderly people are in disagreement, and represent the current political polarization. My intent is to symbolize our divisive and frequently hostile political climate, and the palpable turmoil we are experiencing with current news, conspiracy theories and rampant corruption. I sincerely hope that “Divided, we do not fall.”

This piece is done in colored pencil. I was taken by the simplicity of the home, and the hint of life within it. The observer is almost intruding upon a very quiet and still moment. The sunset can only be seen in the window reflections. I wanted to emphasize and contrast the plain wooden siding with the rich deep burst of colors from the setting sun.
