Donkey's Dilemma, Democracy's Dance

In 2024, I created my piece Donkey's Dilemma, Democracy's Dance. I used acrylic ink, markers, paint pens, and colored pencil. The blue donkey, representing the Democrats, is shown in a defensive pose - kicking at the red elephant (Republicans) while simultaneously appearing submissive. Thisvisual metaphor reflects the Democrats' efforts to push back against current Republican rhetoric, while struggling to maintain their footing. The composition highlights the complex power struggle and ideological conflict that defines contemporary American politics.
