Faces of Mankind
In 2016 Brian Peterson expanded his local non-profit, Faces of Santa Ana, to artists around the United States. Faces of Mankind is a humanitarian organization that sets out to befriend and paint portraits of the vulnerable community throughout the world. We then sell the artwork and use proceeds to help in rehabilitating our newfound friends.
The mission of Faces of Mankind is to locally help those in need in cities around the world while also inspiring and activating creatives and supporters of the movement. We believe that the creativity we’ve been given is meant for the outward pouring of love.
