We Paint!

We Paint Pictures of

Confidence...

Compassionate, culturally sensitive, and charismatic pictures

We paint pictures of women constantly challenging themselves to couple their faith with their actions

We paint pictures of chiseled bodies and good looks

Pictures of greatness, boldness, strength, and pride

Pictures full of colors, life, deep browns and purple hues

We paint pictures of strength, resilience, power, and authority.

Pictures of reliance on Jesus

We are the beautiful beings that embody the love of Christ

We paint pictures of women willing to admit their shortcomings and mistakes because we are striving to be perfect when we are weak

WE paint truth,

 faces full of smiles and

 an appreciation for nature

We paint awareness of the social injustices, racism, discrimination and prejudices that black women and people of color face

We paint pictures of our youth and fight for their equality and ability to see their present and future as brighter than ours

We paint pictures with no black, to avoid being placed in boxes or generalized

So instead, we paint pictures of vibrancy, healers, lovers

We paint pictures that inspire

And we paint pictures of intelligence and wisdom. Confidence and strength

Pictures of Big mommas

Pictures of smart, loving, down to earth, vulnerable, but not weak, and a tad bit sensitive women

We paint pictures that let the world know they are all our brothers and sisters

We paint pictures of grace and royalty. Of hope and blessings. Of peace and justice

We paint the picture of the black woman with a different stroke, different brush, and different color each time

We paint to show that like any great masterpiece, there is too much depth to ever fully be explored. And that is our great mystery!
