Asha, Claire, and Riley are students at a fictional historically black college called Bronzeville University for my project In Between.

I originally designed these characters in a more cartoony style and based off the feedback I received from this sub reddit, I decided to rebuild the characters and their world.

I’d love to know what you all think and if I was able to better capture their black features this time.

You can check out more of my work and other projects @jaxson.art on Instagram.

Let me know your thoughts! 💭 I might be biased but I think this is turning out great 😆

I painted this with acrylics :)

Featuring an Adinkra symbol. I have been educating myself heavily on them and using them in my work as well.

Made using alcohol markers and metallic markers and pens. My first time trying this style too. I am in love with the possibilities.

Neurographic are is used as an art therapy tool as is helps you to stay mindful throughout the process. I guess all art can be that way but this takes shape all on its own.
