Description
Our Pride features four hands to symbolize aspects of LGBTQ Pride. A fist, symbolizing the fight against oppression throughout history as LGBTQ and also as BIPOC queer people. A painter’s hand, symbolizing our creativity and openness as a community. A hand holding a sunflower, a symbol for self-love and seeking light. And, a hand in a classic peace sign. The background color is a bright sky, symbolic of the progress we have made and have yet to make. Each hand will be painted realistically representing diverse people.
