it's giving life of an artist.

I never have expectaions of going viral. I am always in hopes that whenever I paint or draw from inspiration, the people who've inspired me see it as well. This painting was inspired by @winnieharlow. This gives me hope, that even though I'm not your favorite artist or even considered for a measly like or retweet or share. Your favorite favorite likes my art. The ones it's meant for, I'm feeling vindicated. https://www.instagram.com/p/BwQKQ97DPDH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13lp4nourqifj

There are is so much you can interpret from this piece. I definitely wanted it to be controversial. First I was inspired. Inspired by the novel Catch 22. Which I previously did illustrations for. Then came the story of OJ and my imagination set off. For the sake of "less is more" I toned down my urge to go crazy and decided to keep it simple yet thought provoking. #stillnigga 🤷🏾‍♀️ 4:44 is your messenger telling you to have faith and be confident that things are going in the right direction in your life. 4th Meaning of 4:44: You Are in Harmony with the Universe. 4:44 as the mark of an awakening to a new level of genius. #blackarts #blackgirlsthatpaint #storyofoj #redtails #juneteenth #blackartcollector #artistsoninstagram #artoftheday #instagood #instaartistcreations #blackartnetwork #blackartistspace #blackart365 #theshaderoom #tsr #artoftheday #artbasel #artcollective #blackartinamerica #africadopedaily #gallery #blackartist #love #dopeartwork https://www.instagram.com/p/BpIFX3GhhmR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yq56fl8wkkty

Revamped an old sweatshirt I was gonna throw out. Bleached and painted. Looked quite dusty at first, now I'm happy. https://www.instagram.com/p/BohtfZnBAih/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=b8xku15rj8qs

"I feel like quitting." Is what I used to say. I didn't get enough #likes #comments or #shares . My heart is literally spilled on every canvas. (In more ways than one.) It was disheartening to feel as if I wasn't good enough. I aspire to be a giver of wisdom, creativity, ccompassion, good vibes & strength. I had to grow, learn to focus more on my purpose and understanding not everyone would get that. What I want I already have. Change your words and you'll change your world.

Perhaps the meaning is in the experience and not the sight.
