Repast to Follow is a work that I believe represents a common moment for Black people, especially those from the south. This painting depicts that particular period of time between the end of a funeral and the beginning of the repast, which is the meal served after the service is completed. This moment feels familiar and comforting, and the figures portray the mix of emotions that follow such an event. Website | www.michonsandersart.com Instagram | @michonsandersart
