QWEIRD is obviously a play on words but as an LGBTQ+ ally, I wanted this painting to challenge the unfounded fear of alternative lifestyles. I don’t understand what these people are afraid of, is it hot colors? Among other things, this painting was created using oils, markers, and spray paint on wood. It was part of a series of paintings created for my first solo show in Oakland, California “¡Somos Americanos? in 2017.
