This painting is my tribute to African women, celebrating their unique beauty and facial features through my stylized approach to painting. I emphasize their individuality and cultural richness while challenging conventional beauty standards. By using wool to depict the texture and strength of African hair, I aim to challenge societal norms and affirm the significance of hair as a crown for black women. Additionally, the inclusion of a headscarf symbolizes tradition and identity, further honoring African heritage. Ultimately, this artwork serves as my visual homage and statement of empowerment, recognizing the beauty and worth of African women in all their forms.
