This limited edition digital illustration was created in hopes to bring more awareness to Black Breastfeeding Week sometimes in the black community there are different thoughts and narratives about breastfeeding. I wanted to share the natural beauty of Black Women who do breastfeed and for those that wanted to breastfeed but may not have been able to for various factors. I am uplifting those voices and women through this artwork.

Last year's goal was almost reached with your loving support we raised a total of $285 that went directly to Vital Village. Let's set the bar higher together!

Currently making available 3 limited edition prints for a buy now the value of $225. Don't want to buy the art right now, simply make a donation to support mothers and their infants.

11x14 professional archival print

This image is part of the Ultra Blackness collection of digital illustrations that draw upon urban pop culture related to the past and present. Instead of using just shades of browns to represent melanated skin tones the color black is used to emphasize rich cultural heritage.

Elements of hip-hop cultures and other styles that represented blackness have been highlighted but not exclusively. Focusing on moments to honor and uplift one another.

This work only touches upon some of the things that make being black beautiful because there is no one way to be or represent blackness.
