This painting describes the lives of Ugandans in their different societies. In these societies and communities there are people who are well off, have better standards of living, proper housing, good education and are privileged, and we also have those that are unprivileged that live in slims, poor education, unhealthy conditions but are still hoping to have life with a smile though living the unprivileged life.
I made this painting to encourage and cheer up the people in the ghetto who have and those who lost hope that there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
The painting portrays a girl who is happily hoping for a better Uganda with all of us having better lives, good education, proper health and mental stability that is all portrayed in her smile and the beautiful colors of the national flag.
