I wanted to create a painting of a world where King Charles is homeless. The background shows images of some young homeless people who have sadly died on the streets. The huge wealth gap, the lack of empathy and love, the greed and power grab is all that is wrong with modern capitalist society and the figurehead for this is our royal family. I can not believe that in 2023 such a wealth gap not only exists but is getting wider.
