feature: new paintings from virginia-based artist justice dwight inspire pride as they shed a beautiful light on natural black hair

In his latest compilation of work, painter Justice Dwight is taking it to the next level. A year after first having his work featured, the VA-based artist is expanding his horizons and sharpening his technique. Inthisspecific series, his main focus is the undeniable beauty of natural hair. As he plays with texture, color, and shape, Dwight illuminates the true nature of happy, nappy hair. A sense of pride radiates from all of his pieces; no longer will we fall under the expectation of representation- and thanks to projects such as these, the public no longer has to search for variety, instead it is handed to them on a silver platter.

The works of Justice Dwight have continuously pushed the boundaries of art; creating a respectful platform for cultural pride and acceptance. Keep up with his work on Etsy, and check out his latest pieces below.
