“As a black artist, every single piece that I draw is my attempt to promote a world where black and brown children are seen, heard, valued, and validated. Quoted from one of my favorite artists, Faith Ringgold, ‘You cant sit around and wait for somebody to say who you are. You need to write it and paint it and do it.’”
