I don’t paint animals often, but this cute shaggy pup holds a special place with me. Darla was her name. She had a beautiful life and always had a smile on her face when she saw me. Forever in our hearts. ❤️

My first post on this app, and fittingly in #BlackHistoryMonth . I’ll make it an intro to who I am as an artist: I am a Black artist working at the intersection of memory, identity, and liberation, treating the Black body as both archive and prophecy. My work honors Blackness. ❤️
