Crown
After partnering with Crown Shepherd for Black Girl, Black Girl I was offered the opportunity to be the illustrator for Issues 2 and 3 for her graphic novel Crown.
Crown follows Taji and her friends as they discover her hair is more than what it seems when her hair starts to change hairstyles at random. Not only does her hair change hairstyles but it also turns into a weapon with each hairstyle. Our purpose is to show young black and brown girls that characters who look like them deserve to be the main characters and to instill confidence in them and the perception of themselves. Issue 2 is currently available for sale on Crown's own website with Issue 3 releasing 2025. "Join Crown and her friends as they navigate this exciting new chapter filled with adventure, discovery, and unexpected twists. With stunning artwork and a captivating storyline, “Crown Comic Issue Two” is sure to leave readers on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the next installment in Crown’s epic journey." |
