"While painting this portrait of GEORGE FLOYD... I found myself getting emotional... thinking of his last words... thinking of his daughter.. I had to step away from the painting.... clear my head for a second. And even though my head is not clear and I’m not okay... as an artist, a BLACK MAN, a father, a husband, I wanted to make sure I paint him the way I see him." - Phil Simpson
