Description
This is a collage piece with many different elements coming together. We have three black men in the painting all working in a garden, one is touching the flowers, another is digging, and the third is raking. There are two baskets filled with stuffed bears and trees in the background as well. There is a white sign saying Welcome to with the location unreadable. And city buildings can be seen in the background, with a red ribbon at the top of the piece.
