With many facing difficulties due to Covid-19 and the current social unrest, it is important to move forward and not lose faith in one another. Even though Covid-19 has been devastating it has helped me realize how much people need each other. This scene of underwater tranquility is a reminder to work for a brighter future and keep believing in one another. My teachers, family, and friends have all “been there” to support and encourage me, inspiring me to create this piece.
