Since the news broke about Chadwick Boseman’s tragic death, there have been emotional tributes pouring in, including ones from children.
Senegalese artist Bou Bou however, has created something truly unique, using just four roses and some paint.

It’s so sad that cancer has claimed the life of this talented young man. He was far too young. Sadly, I’ve lost relatives to that wretched disease who weren’t much older.
The tributes are wonderful. What that artist did with the roses is amazing.

My dad died from a brain tumor when he was only 52, so I can emphasize Mae.

Wow. I’m so sorry, Kim. My dad was 53 when he died of colon cancer. So sad to have something like that in common 😦

The video won’t play properly for me, but I’m sure it was great to see. I have never seen any of his films, but his death at such a young age was tragic indeed.
Best wishes, Pete.

Drat. You should look it up Pete. It’s beautiful. As far as the movies go, I think you’d especially like 42, and Marshall. There are two of his movies currently on Netflix right now: Message From the King and Da Five Bloods. I loved the first one, but haven’t gotten to the latter, although it’s been getting rave reviews.

What an incredible talent to create something like that. Truly amazing! It’s definitely still an incredibly heartbreaking event. It feels a bit like Paul Walkers tragic passing…it just stays in your mind for a very long time😢 Beautiful tribute post again Kim😊
