Human beings created the differences that separate us, but I believe only love can truly change the world. The drawing features a heart with the Earth inside, surrounded by symbols from many different religions and beliefs.

Using many small blue and red dots, I wanted to show that we are all "ashes of grey" and equal in the eyes of the creator. It does not matter what your race, religion, or social status is—we all live under the same sun and moon. This work is a reminder that if a message does not preach love, it is not worth preaching. All we really need is love to bring us together.
