Riding Through the West
There is a freedom that comes with movement, especially when it belongs to youth. In this illustration, that freedom unfolds under the open skies of California, where the light feels different and the streets seem made for wandering. The moment is unhurried, shaped by warmth, motion, and the quiet confidence of being outside with nowhere else to be.
Two sisters sit on their bikes, paused between riding and resting. One leans forward with focus, steady and grounded, while the other lifts her hand in a playful gesture, relaxed and expressive. Their posture suggests familiarity and trust, the kind that comes from growing up side by side. Palm trees frame the background, anchoring the scene in place while the open road hints at possibility.
Riding Through the West honors sisterhood and the freedom found in shared experience. It reflects how memory forms through simple moments riding together, claiming space, and moving through the world with ease. Through black ink, Lakeem preserves this California scene as a reminder that joy, connection, and becoming often happen in motion, alongside the people who know us best.
