Any and everybody who reads our blog knows our admiration for Kanye West. Well this time, this post is partly about him, while the majority is focused on the painting. Many people have seen this, but do not know the true meaning behind it. The piece entitled "A Life Restored", is one of my favorite paintings, and I thought I would share it with our bizillion of viewers. It was painted by Ernie Barnes, unveiled in 2005. The entire composition pivots around the gleaming brownish flesh tones of Kanye West receiving his new life’s aura from a descending angel. I spotted the painting when Kanye did an interview on Nightline. He points it out while giving the interviewer a tour of his home. Enjoy. Peace.
