Israel Solomon is always looking to paint scenes that will uplift the students he teaches. So this summer, when he drove past a young girl selling lemonade while wearing a dress and a determined look, he doubled back to the residence off 30th and Martin Luther King Jr. streets.
The artist bought a drink and and asked her family if he could take her picture to create a new work. The young lady at the lemonade stand, for me, is a representation of resilience and strength and the ability to push forward just for the simple fact that the young lady, through the tumultuous year that was going on, was still there standing strong, ready to go, Solomon said.
