I'm a photographer while shooting the sunrise at Lanikai /Kailua Beach located in Honolulu Hawaii. I notice that the photo I had shot a man appeared, so I decided to paint the screen , with the man in the sky along with the sunrise. When I completed the painting the man that was in the sky looked like President Donald Trump. Since this was The Four Hundred year since Slavery in America why not address this year event. The title of my painting: TRANSATLANTICLINKAGE: THE GULLAH/GEECHEE-SIERRALEONECONNECTION 400 YEARS OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE 1619-2019 This year many Black Americans are traveling to Africa to celebrate The Year of RETURN Ghana 2019. The United States Congress recently passed an Act H.R.- 400 Years of African-American which is historically significant milestone. Ghana's unique position as the location for 75 percent of the slave dungeons built on the west coast of Africa and the current President's policy of making it a national priority to extend a hand of welcome back home to Africans in the diaspora cannot be over emphasized.

Something that has been long time over due.

Thank you for the additional images and your patience. The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil or acrylic paint on canvas with unknown measurements. The painting depicts a sunrise and is signed by the artist Clift Taylor. Clift Taylor is not listed in auction hammer price lists and similar databases.
