Black and white
When i posted this for the first time I got comments that it was bad showing a black man dominating a white girl and I should be ashamed. To be fair it is the view of those people that needs to change not the image. The image is art and always will be, today it shows me how much racism is still in the world, hopefully one day people will look at this image and see the beauty of being in the hands of another person rather than seeing that the hands are black.

entry description
This portrait should not be controversial but it still is, when I created this fun portrait that was meant to show that different indeviduals could impact and touch each other. It is alright to be in other hands than your own.When i posted this for the first time I got comments that it was bad showing a black man dominating a white girl and I should be ashamed.
