Kenya Raines -
Creator. Artist.
Hello everyone. I'm a freelance artist and I work with acrylic and oil paint on stretched and textured canvas. My art mainly consists of bright and vibrant displays of black women and the cultural concepts that are involved in our everyday lives such as hair and style.
Based out of PG County, Maryland, my artwork has reached people in the Baltimore/Washington D.C metro area, Detroit, MI, New York City, and other locations.
Born in Chicago, raised in Maryland I have always been surrounded by art and beauty. I Studied art at MICA and Syracuse University. I love working in a variety of mediums from paint to textiles.
