Take A Look At Yourself
A black-and-white portrait of George Floyd on plywood outside of a business. The portrait is stylized to be more abstract and haunting than hyperrealistic, but because it is such a recognizable photo Floyd is easily identified. His black hooded sweatshirt is replaced with the motif of the United States American flag. The words "TAKE A LOOK AT YOURSELF" are written beneath the portrait with spray paint.

When the Power of Love Overcomes the Love of Power
A wooden board is washed in ombre, moving from white to black. Twelve fists are raised in solidarity at varying heights. The text "when the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace" is painted on a white banner. This text is a quote from Jimi Hendrix. On the left side of the banner text reads "RIP G.F. 5.25.20."

Breonna Mural CHAZ
This mural is dominated by large, capital letters reading “Breonna.” The text is soft and rounded and is outlined in white. A transparent green wash, curves through the text in a single paint stroke. A darker, yellow paint curved line moves to the forefront and background of the lettering. Small, pink, paint strokes layer on top of the text. Surrounding the name “Breonna,” blue, painted vegetation appears. A light, transparent, blue emanates from the text. The blue vegetation appears to be ferns and vines.

Blues for George
A mural on the exterior of the Springboard for the Arts building in Saint Paul, MN. A plywood mural with a white background. A blue "blues for george" (George Floyd portrait stencil) is on the right. Blue letters on the left spell out: " Say His Name". The background on the left is a white and grey checkered background. Someone has written in black marker "Long Live C---laou(?)" (illegible) "Justice 4 Ryan G" "BLM!" It is unclear if these messages are part of the original mural or if they were added later. This piece was created with permission during a paint event hosted by Springboard for the Arts.
This piece was scanned by KBK on Oct 2, 2020.
KBK: ""Blues for George" was the title someone at Springboard for the Arts used in reference to this mural specifically. I do not know if that is its official name, but I will use it for now."
