Symbol of Justice by R. Smith

Acrylic on hard canvas

Meet the artist: R. Smith

Inspiration:

The representation of the eagle is the symbol in many cultures. Native American culture, it’s a symbol of Unity … Messenger … Truth and, of course, Justice. Here in our Justice System it’s our seal of our eagle is a statute of many things that signify Strength, Honor and Unity.

What role does art play in your life?

I originally did this piece for my Culture but then I was presented with this project and it went pretty well with the theme. With the two worlds I live in, it’s a good representation of both.

Justice statement:

Art has always played a big part of me communicating with my family, public and myself. When I see something I think will be a challenge in my art, I’ll try … the harder, the better, I love a challenge.
