Badu by Porsha ReneePorsha Renee is a painter bringing attention to black and brown women through her art. Her artwork is a reflection of who she is and focuses her works on creating black woman arts. She has hand painting portraits as tall as 5 feet and is continuously evolving as an artist while staying true to crest Queen art. This artist is particularly special to me since she is a childhood friend of mine who has always had such a passion for art since we were young. I’m so happy to see her pursuing that passion in her adult life while balancing motherhood. Her creative side reflects in all parts of her, so it is especially wonderful to see her...
