The new Lilo and Stitch movie just came out! I loved Lilo and Stitch as a kid so I drew these Lilo and Angel stickers.

I’ll be selling them in person and online in my shop.

I cry… a lot. I can’t help it! Ya girl is a cry baby. So I do this “healthy” thing where I pour my feelings into my art.

So crying doesn’t feel so bad when it inspires a new drawing.

(Side note: I couldn’t find any sad videos of me but I was definitely sad and fronting in this video lol. Very much “does it look like I give a fuck? cus I don’t!” And did tho.)

Did anyone shoot their shot and land themselves a date today?

When is it too soon to tell someone you’re with that you love them? The correct answer is it’s never too soon stink! I loved you off the first link! 🤪

There’s no logic behind love baby. Tell your people you love them before it’s too late 🫶🏽

As you know I’ve partnered with @walmartcanada for Black History Month to design these lovely bags and t-shirts.

We would love to see your pictures rocking “My Crown” so please feel free to tag @KendalBlake & @WalmartCanada in your photos for us to share!

This Black History Month I’ve partnered with @walmartcanada to design a new illustration “My Crown”.

Creating this illustration was not only an honour but a full circle moment for me as a Black Artist.
Our hair is our crown and it is a significant part of the Black experience in so many different ways with a lot of historical context behind it.

I wanted to create something that not only would be special to me but would speak to many different Black Canadians.

You can find “My Crown” T-shirt’s and Tote Bags for a limited time in select Walmart stores across Canada. Proceeds from each shirt sold will go toward @ceetoronto for workforce development and education to create visible career opportunities for Black youth to achieve financial prosperity and a high quality of life for themselves and their families.

Happy Black History Month!
KENDAL 🖤 BLAKE

Thank you @Shenanigan00 and the rest of the team at Walmart for this great opportunity to share my work with Canada.
