Acrylic Expressionist Painting, "The Porter"

Green suggests the force of life in this allegory by William Mawuenyega Agbanavor, Jr. He depicts a woman who rests after a long day of work. "In all things, there is the need for rest. It helps to refresh the mind and also to come out with new innovations and solutions to a challenge or problem that one may be faced with," he says. "This painting tells us to pause a while to be able to think through affairs."
