Trayvon Martin

This piece was created on Procreate and released to Instagram for its initial publication.

“Trayvon Martin was only 17 when he was murdered. Florida’s Stand Your Ground laws prevented his killer from seeing proper justice, and the Republican Right even heralded his murderer as a kind of spokesperson for a time, until they too realized how crazy his killer was. You’d think murdering an innocent child would have made that clear to begin with, but I digress. Trayvon was found dead with a can of Arizona Tea and a bag of Skittles. This picture is rendered using only the colors found within a bag of Skittles. Trayvon’s life mattered.”
