Super excited to announce that I will be in a group exhibition with the one and only @akemiart and @artofedge! Plantains & Pigments explores our shared Nigerian heritage and our creative works as illustrators and artists. 

I am such a huge fan of Akem and Edge. Akem creates these effortless figures in magical environments with vibrant colors, textures, and use of shape. Edge combines ornate line and rich color with such power, subtlety, mystery. and grace.

Once I realized we were all in the Vancouver area I knew that a sacred connection brought us together for a reason. We all have similar backgrounds and inspirations, and seeing where our expression and visual language crosses over and differs is such an exciting journey!

I would love nothing more than for you all to get a glimpse into our world of Plantains & Pigments on June 1st at The James Black Gallery!

*Egg comes hopping towards the two, a Sylveon wrapped snugly up to it's neck within it's flower... It seems friendly. And wanting to talk.*

Puella Magi!Akemi has a bit of a Sailor Moon vibe goin' on, but that's not really the case at all. It just kinda... turned out that way on accident. Oops.

Her color is medium/cobalt blue, and her major weapons are throwing knives and swords. Her weapons might seem small and ineffective at first glance, but barraging a witch with hundreds of tiny blades is more powerful than meets the eye. 

What did she wish for? Well that's a secret for now.
