From Jada: My illustrations play a significant role as they portray women of color in a manner that is frequently overlooked in traditional art spaces. By depicting these women in simple, endearing ways, I aim to celebrate their beauty and humanity, which is often underrepresented in society.

Moreover, my artwork delves into the exploration of feminine identity and the women's experience, shining a light on the unique perspectives and encounters of women of color.
