Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 1929-1968

In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I used the Paint program on my computer to create his portrait artwork. I was a child when Dr. King was killed, but I do remember him as being a Civil Rights Leader whose vision was for people of every race to stand together to support common goals of racial and economic equalities.
