Here is part of a drawing from a while ago that I want to rework. It came from researching African princesses and wanted to draw one with superpowers and action!

black and white drawing of African American woman with braids and puffs with green zebra print

I'm really loving how artists use black for shadows so I have been experimenting. But then I wanted flat afro puffs too, so green to the rescue!

Thanks so much!!! Those are some of my favorite details 😊

Referenced an image from Pinterest for this drawing. I'm sad at how difficult it's becoming to find real images beneath the ai sludge 😫

Fashion fairy illustration of an African American woman in a floral dress floating among colorful flowers

Fanart of Beat and Gum from Jet Set Radio. They are floating in fisheye perspective with exaggerated proportions. Gum's face is close to the camera and she's staring at it scrutinizingly with her mouth open. Beat is further away with a grin and pointing a spray paint can at the camera. His feet with roller blades are close to the camera and enlarged from the perspective. The drawing is is brightly coloured and cel-shaded with black.

Illustration of a Juneteenth Poster celebration full of food vendors, hosted by Saltbox Seafood Joint

Happy Juneteenth! I got to illustrate the poster for Saltbox Seafood Joint's Juneteenth Celebration happening today. It was really fun referencing hip hop and African posters from the present and past to make this, and a great challenge to only use 5 colors without it looking lame 😆
