Little life moments and shit ☁️

#lifedump #breadcrumbs #rollthetape

I’ve always been obsessed with ancestry—my roots, who I am, and where I came from. Recently, I found a newspaper clipping featuring my great-grandmother when she turned 100 years old. That discovery led me and my favorite uncle in the whole wide world on a mission—hours in the library, moving from building to building, determined to find that archive.

When we finally held that old paper in our hands, his eyes lit up… and the tears rolled. The love he had for his grandmother mirrored the love I have for mine. I never got to meet her, but I took that black and white photo and brought it to life in color—brown eyes, melanated skin, warmth. It was the first time I ever saw her that way, and the first time in a long time that my family saw her face again.

That moment became more than just an art project—it was a connection. And as we shipped and listened to records from his vinyl collection, which I now proudly share, I realized how much of him lives in me. His stories tell me about him, but they also show me myself. He is my ancestry. My DNA. My bloodline. His blood runs through my veins—and it shows. Family is everything, and without them .. I wouldn’t be Onaytonie.

Intimidation

@bellevueartsmuseum

“Intimidating.” I hear it way too often. But the truth is—I’m not intimidating. They’re intimidated.

Being a strong, independent Black woman is both a gift and a curse. A superpower that somehow gets used against you. So, I painted her the way I see myself—bold, beautiful, and unapologetically powerful. Her afro is her crown, her presence is undeniable, and that gentle death stare? It says everything:

“I am who I am. And whatever you think of me? That’s your personal problem, not mine.”

For the longest time, I tried to keep myself out of a box. I didn’t want to be labeled as that artist who just paints flowers. But over time, I realized that painting flowers has given me a deeper satisfaction. In a way, I feel like I’m giving women their flowers while they’re here—showing them that they are loved, appreciated, confident, bold… everything and then some. 💐
