I’ve taken a break from canvas & started painting on fabrics. This was a new white & black jacket & an old pair of black slacks that got a face lift. I can’t wait to wear this new outfit! Just not sure where to wear it next. #blackartistintexas #blackartists #artist #art #fabricpaintingart

This is the first in a new series of animals for children’s paintings. This one is called “Pawtrait of Play” #lion #babylion #lioncubs #lions #kingofthejungle #artist #art #AfricanArt #africanlion #blackartists #artistsoninstagram #blackartistintexas

This 8x10 painting was a custom order that came from my art exhibit. The customer is a huge fan and I decided to add “purple rain” to take it to the next level. Let me know what you think. #artist #artistoninstagram #africanart #artists #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #blackartists

I thank everyone for their support to my art exhibit. It was a very successful day. For the first time ever I got 5 requests for custom paintings and a request to paint a mural at a church! #blackartists #blackartistintexas #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #africanart

He IS Risen! Happy Resurrection Sunday from the Watson’s!

Today marks a momentous occasion. 7 years ago today we embarked on an extraordinary journey of marriage and ministry. We remain unbroken and united. To my rock, Arthur L Watson Jr, my love for you knows no bounds. Here's to celebrating 7 years of resilience and devotion! #itsouranniversary

Here is a sneak peak to one of my 3D paintings. But to really experience her beauty, make sure you come to view her in person at the McKinney Cotton Mill on May 10th. #blackartistintexas #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #redhead

GM Family! Here is another painting of an elephant. This one has very detailed wrinkled skin. Please continue to give me your feedback. Enjoy! #blackartistintexas #artist #artexhibit #art #ArtExhibition #artistsoninstagram #elephantlovers #elephant

This is was a painting from 2021 that I gave a facelift. Let me know if you like my newest version. #blackartistintexas #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #tiger #bengals #bengaltiger

Is it me or does it seem like your blood pressure rises and heart rate increases with each breaking news post? I can’t watch the news and I’m having difficulty reading it without being so angry I get a headache.

This is the final painting in my 3 part collection of the Lion and the Lamb. Enjoy! #blackartistintexas #artist #lionandlamb #artexhibit #art #lion #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #LionOfJudah

This is the second of a three painting series of the Lion and the lamb. #blackartistintexas #artist #artexhibit #art #lion #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #lionandlamb #LionOfJudah

Here is the first of a three painting series entitled The Lion & the Lamb. Notice the dove too. Let me know what you think. #blackartistintexas #artist #artexhibit #art #ArtExhibition #artistsoninstagram #lion #lionandlamb #Dove #LionOfJudah

I’m not one who holds back in my criticism of the evangelical church. But if you haven’t noticed I’ve been eerily quiet - on purpose. It’s not that I approve or am disengaged but I’ve made a decision to protect my peace at all cost. There is no reasoning with crazy.

I know it seems like I paint fast. But I’m usually working on 2-3 paintings at a time. While one is drying I’m painting on another one. #blackartistintexas #africanartist #africanart #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram

Painting has been my place of calm and peace especially in times of uncertainty. So I’m considering hosting an online painting class if anyone is interested, let me know. #blackartistintexas #africanartist #africanart #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram

My latest painting is an elephant in the tall grass. Enjoy! #blackartistintexas #africanartist #africanart #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #elephantsofinstagram #elephantlovers #elephant

Here is another upgraded picture. I painted the lion in 2022 but added the tree leaves this weekend. This is the same lion that I painted a mural in Kenya at an orphanage. #africanartist #africanart #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #lion #blackartistintexas

Here is another upgraded painting. See the before picture on the left and the after picture on the right. Please give me feedback on the changes. #blackartistintexas #bear #africanartist #africanart #beauty #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram

I started this new painting before I got sick last week. So this one took longer than usual but I hope you like seeing the process. #beautifulwoman #africanartist #africanart #beauty #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #artistic #blackartistintexas

I decided to upgrade this painting that I originally created in 2021. I hope you like her new look. #art #artexhibit #artist #africanartist #africanart #artexhibition #artistic #artistsoninstagram #blackwoman #beautifulwoman #beauty

This painting is entitled “Legacy.” Enjoy! #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #artistic #africanartist #africanart #fatherandson

It’s official!!!! Save the date: 5/10/25 10 am - 4 pm open to the public Exclusive VIP event 6:30-8 pm #artexhibit #artist #art #ArtExhibition #artistic #artistsoninstagram

This painting entitled “Little Girl” was inspired by a photo of me and my dad in 1979. It’s my favorite photo of my dad. I miss calling home hearing him say, “Hey little girl.” I hope you like it. #artist #artexhibit #art #artexhibition #artistsoninstagram #artistic #africanart #africanartist

This painting titled “Motherhood” was inspired by my previous painting “Life’s Hard.” Both are a part of my upcoming collection for my spring art exhibit. Please give me feedback. Enjoy! #africanartist #africanart #artistoninstagram #artist #artwork #artexhibit #art #motherandchild #blackmother

2024 was a tough year and 2025 already has its challenges. That’s why this painting I created is titled “Life’s Hard.” Check out the video of me painting it in previous posts. #artist #art #momandchild

Krypto was enjoying the Texas snow! We got 8 inches yesterday so the city is shut down. Hopefully we can leave the house tomorrow.

This painting was inspired by a photograph that Arthur and I took a few years ago. It’s titled “Regal” #artistontiktok #africanartist #africanart #artistoninstagram #artist #artwork #artexhibit #art #husbandandwife #blackcouple

I’ve decided to take my paintings to another level for my exhibit this year. This one is titled “Life’s Hard.” I hope you like it. #artist #africanart #motherandchild #artwork #artistoninstagram #artistonfacebook #art #painting
