Original artwork, 36x36 inches, acrylic paint on canvas. Take home a stunning original painting by Boston-based artist Sharif Muhammad. About the artist - Sharif Muhammad holds a BA in Graphic Design and a M.Ed. in Instructional Technology. He has been a high school Technology and Humanities Teacher in Boston since 2002. In 2011, he picked up a paintbrush for the first time and realized that he never wanted to put it down. He believes his artistic purpose is to represent, empower, uplift, glorify and convey the emotions of black and brown people living in America. Sharif has found that art enables him to express feelings about being a black man in America that would be flattened, simplified and limited by verbal or literal expression. Sharif’s piece "Rainbow Swag" can now be seen as a mural on McBride Street in Jamaica Plain. Learn more about Sharif at www.sharifmuhammad.com
