Black All 4 Seasons
 
There is a quiet confidence that comes from knowing yourself across time. This drawing holds that feeling. The kind of knowing that does not need explanation, only presence. Each figure feels rooted, carrying a different season of life while standing together in the same frame.
 
Four women emerge through layered ink, their expressions calm, guarded, and assured. Hair becomes texture, volume, and identity. Some faces meet the viewer directly, others turn slightly away, holding their own space. The density of the ink moves between softness and weight, echoing the complexity of being seen and unseen at the same time.
 
Black All 4 Seasons honors the fullness of Black womanhood. It reflects how strength, vulnerability, youth, and wisdom coexist rather than compete. Through black ink, Lakeem preserves this collective portrait as a reminder that Black women do not belong to a single moment or narrative, but move through every season with resilience, style, and self possession.
