    Back To My Roots

    Back to My Roots is a personal illustration project that explores Afro-Caribbean identity, heritage, and cultural storytelling through expressive visual narratives. Inspired by the richness of African and Caribbean traditions, the project combines symbolism, color, texture, and character-focused compositions to celebrate ancestry and cultural pride. Through each illustration, I aimed to create meaningful imagery that honors my roots while exploring themes of identity, belonging, and self-discovery.
