"As April Look Back, She Realized Her Weakness Had Become Her Strength" is a 2020 painting by Lanise Howard. The painting is a portrait of a young Black woman, her hair styled in a blocky, pixelated form, reminiscent of early digital art. The woman's confident gaze suggests self-acceptance and overcoming challenges. Her blue patterned kimono and jeans showcase Howard's signature vibrant color palette and detail. This piece reflects Howard's interest in exploring Black identity and the role of technology in contemporary life. The artwork's title hints at a personal narrative of resilience and growth.
