Mr. Rogers
2018
9″ x 12″ watercolor on paper
““When I say it’s you I like, I’m talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.” – Fred Rogers
I was inspired to paint this after watching the documentary “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” I nearly cried through the whole movie. I think partly from nostalgia. And partly from sadness that there seem to be so few people in the world like Mr. Rogers.
