My First Art Show x Raw Natural Artists: Grandeur

I am SO happy to announce that my art will be featured at RAW DC presents 'Grandeur' on March 4th at the Howard Theatre! It was only within the last year that I reunited with my first love of drawing/ painting.. so I'm very grateful to be presented with this opportunity. 

If you're in the DC area please come out and support, as this will be my first showcase and is a very exciting time for me! There will be plenty of other talented visual and performance artists there as well. 

Tickets can be purchased through my link rawartists.org/inspirethetribe.. and are $15 in advance.

Lust List: Atelier Versace Collection Spr. '15

The first "Lust List" of the year is probably one of my most out of reach to date. *insert long defeated sigh here* I fell in love with the Henri Matisse inspired cutouts on the Atelier Versace Haute Couture Spring 2015 runway in Paris yesterday.
 
I'm praying that one of my favorite stores are able to come out with a quality knock off soon. lol. Can you blame me?

Dove x Love Your Hair Campaign



I've only truly started embracing my naturally hair within the last two years. Take a look at where it all began here. (and  I love that Dove is making a campaign about loving and embracing who you truly are. Now, even when I get the urge to straighten my hair it is short lived.. it just doesn't feel like who I am anymore. I love my big curly unruly mane and I wish that I would've began loving it sooner.
 
Come out to The Black Love Experience hosted by one of my favorite boutiques in DC, Nubian Hueman, on Feb 8th.  Use House of Mimi promo code below for a discount, and I'll see you there!


( SIDE NOTE: I've been painting, I've been painting.. stay tuned. PS. I still want a steak - 22 days in. )

Happy Wednesday!
I'm just getting back from a week long stint in LA, and I feel refreshed and rejuvenated. Sometimes you just need to break away from the workaday and catch up with faraway friends, new sights, sounds and feels. I didn't take as many pics as I would have liked because I was having too good of a time, but that may be for the best. It's good to stop and revel in the moment in this excessively update driven world that we live in.
Hope all is well, and I'll be updating soon.

Unite Against Racism x Collaborative Art Piece x DMV









On Saturday I joined several fellow artists/ bloggers/ creatives on a collaborative piece with the purpose of sparking discussion on the ongoing killings of young black men/ women in America. We were encouraged to express our reactions, and to stick to an overall theme of 'peace' and bringing these senseless killings to an end.
I was a little short on time and didn't get into it like I would have liked, but I'm extremely happy with the way it turned out. It felt great to work with other talented people and watch a vision come to life before my eyes, especially for such a great cause.

Special thanks to @hedislymane and @ajasmineinbloom for having me.
