How do you define COMMUNITY, and are we getting to know each other more or less?

The meaning of "I Serve" by my hubby #MelvinDNix #ArtByMelvinDNix #Art
From my hubby's I AM Present Series: "I Serve" is about humility — the kind that lifts everyone around you.

"Cover" is not just about the man — it’s about the peace his covering brings and the power of knowing that someone has chosen to stand between you and the storm.
#ArtByMelvinDNix #Artist #WatercolorPainting
It honors the kind of man who understands that strength isn’t shown in how much he carries, but in how much he’s willing to shield others from.
His role is not to dominate the space but to hold it — with intention, with steadiness, with love.
#ArtByMelvinDNix #WatercolorPainting #Artist
The focus isn't on his face but on the act. In this gesture, there’s no need for words. His presence speaks: You are seen. You are safe.
- This painting is a reflection of what it means to be covered — not just from weather, but from the weight of the world.
#ArtByMelvinDNix #WatercolorPainting #Art
Hubby's I AM Present Series: "Cover" captures a quiet moment of protection — a man’s hand holding a brown hued umbrella, shielding a Black woman with strainds of hair crossing her left eye & cheek, from the rain.

"Bliss," a reminder 2 take time 2 find joy in life’s simple pleasures. It invites us to reconnect w/our childlike spirit & create moments of bliss, no matter the circumstances. "True bliss is found when we embrace the present, letting go of worry & welcoming the joy of the moment." #Art #MelvinDNix

What moves you to purchase a piece of art?
Real success isn’t always measured by trophies or titles. It’s found in the courage to try, willingness to be seen, & generosity to share your #art w/the world.
He gifted the final piece to the model.

Hubby competed in #Artfields Portrait Competition, didn’t win a cash prize, won in ways that matter most—by showing up, putting himself out there, & embracing the experience.
