This painting of defeated presidential candidate is so inspiring

A lot of Hillary Clinton fans are feeling sad because she lost and here is something to cheer us all up.

Hillary Clinton painting

A lot of young women who were inspired by Hillary Clinton and who had hoped to see her become president have been sent a powerful message by this artist.

While it is difficult to process that a candidate who often dismissed, degraded and insulted women, even bragging about grabbing their genitals, won the election, this artist is conveying a strong message of hope.

Leah Goren, an artist has drawn a piece which shows a back view of Hillary getting some paperwork done at an office desk on the top half.

On the lower half is the mirror image of a woman who is an artist at work, surrounded by paintbrushes, paper, paint and scissors.

At the bottom of the painting are the words: “Inspired to be a woman at work today.”

This painting was supposed to celebrate the historic win of Hillary and it had been commissioned for A Cup of Jo.

Even though Clinton did not win the election, the painting is still powerful and relevant as it has taken on another meaning.

Goren says: “I drew this piece days before when I was so hopeful, thinking I would wake up today inspired to get to work under the leadership of a woman I so admire. Instead I’m inspired today for different reasons ― we will continue to come together as women, work even harder, and lift each other up.”

The photo is a reminder to women that they can do anything they set their minds to, and that their voices matter, regardless of the results of the election.

It is a reminder to keep working hard and never back down.
