Before reliving photos from 2018, this is a current piece of art on Peace by Phoenix, a student of the Community Health Academy of the Heights in NYC

I think Peace starts within yourself and when you have a lack of peace you look for things to fill that void. 
Obsession I think is what is the end of peace but the start of the end is feeling discomfort in one's being. 
So for I drew on my iPad a girl who has short hair and dark eyes but it's still loving herself and is content. I used warm colors to give it a nice vibe and then I outlined the harsh black lines with white. 
The eyes of the girl have hearts and she has soft childish features to represent childhoods because I thought that was the time when everyone ((well most.)) had been whole. When you had been content and bold enough to do as you pleased.
