Look out for my art on this show! The AMC sci-fi comedy series was shelved by the network a while back before it had a chance to air. I'm glad "Demascus" found a home on Tubi, because the show is a dope concept.

Working on my art installation at Meow Wolf Houston last year. On this day, I really got to take in the things that I enjoy about being an artist.

I had fun making my art piece at Meow Wolf Houston. One day there was a little mix up with my art supplies and the construction crew, but the Meow Wolf team got it quickly sorted out.

Thank you!☺️ Wow! It’s been a long time.
ive admired Dawn Okoro's art for nearly 20 years, dating back to MySpace... black art was in abundance online back then & Ms. Okoro was forging ahead. i felt like an artistic big brother to her back then, but one of my last exhibits was in a Tennessee bar in 2011 & Dawn has gone global with hers! 🤣
