![Ana Latese Illustrations As a black artist, I strive for my work to communicate positive ideas and images of people of color. I like creating work that not only illustrates the beauty and strength of a person of color, but also create work that is identifiable and relatable to us. As Faith Ringgold has said, “You can't sit around and wait for somebody to say who you are. You need to write it and paint it and do it.” Ana Latese Illustrations is an outlet for art prints, greeting cards, planner accessories, and stationary items that are crafted specifically for people of color](https://i0.wp.com/archives.blacknerdscreate.com/wp-content/uploads/Artist-Ana-Latese.png?resize=1080%2C1080&ssl=1)
