I am from the ultimate diva, the hot stepper, the “foxy Cleopatra.”
Wigs, make-up, pedicures and expensive designer things
From Gucci to Gabanna and flashy diamond rings
I am from my momma.

I am from humility, dignity, stature and strength.
From a loving heart and a giving soul always cheerful and spiritual and wise.
I am from my daddy.

I am from the kitchen of Mary T, Ella J, Mary S and Maurica M...cooking at its best,
Grandmama’s Collard greens, cornbread, BBQ ribs, “funeral” macaroni,
Putting any challenge to the test!
“Sweet Lucy”, sweet tea with mint leaves and kool-aid can’t be beat
Sweet potato pies, pound cake, peach cobbler and banana pudding are truly a traditional treat.

I am from scorching sun and dreary rains,
Hot August nights with Watermelons and Sugar Canes.
From busy main streets jammed by 4,
Where running a red light without being caught is called a “Score!”
I am from night clubs and McDonald’s on every street,
Where Franklin Blvd. & Meadowgate meet.

I am from the “Sho’ ‘nuffs!” and “Make it plains!”,
From “Halleluyahs!” to shouting “What’s His name!?”
I am from VBS to youth revivals and even shut-in’s too,
From serving the mothers, pastors and first ladies and giving honor to whom honor is due.
“First given honor to God who is the head of my life” is the first thing we say,
Ending with hoping God blesses us with another wonderful day.

I am from the latest dolls and the hottest pens,
Easy Bake ovens and Rumpelstilskin.
From Fraggle Rock to the snuggly CareBears,
To PJ Sparkles with all that rainbow hair!

I am from the dirt hills in the back of our huge house,
That we’d sneak to go into..tip toeing quiet as a mouse.
There dwelled the kissing tree and the smelly turnip patch,
I am from that group of kids that watched the blue bird’s eggs hatch.

...I am a legend in my own right.
 From generations of legends far from my own sight.
From a lineage of Talent, Beauty and Fame;
Scholars, Doctors and those that play the professional game.
From Educators to Mothers, Actresses to Daughters,
Producers to Sons and Lawyers to Fathers.
I hold a special part of the roof of the tree,
because the roots, my ancestors, extend to me.
I am from the Mahans, McCormicks, Scotts, Rudolphs, Johnsons, McCains,
I am from my family.



I am an...Entreprenuer.

I am a...Singer.
singo
I have been signing since the age of 2 beginning with the jingles for television commercials. I sang my first solo in the church at 7 years old, leading the song "Use me". My talents have taken me all over the United States as well as Johannesburg, Cape Town, Soweto and Sun City, South Africa. Currently, I sing background vocals for Kevin Archie, who is a well-knowed gospel artist in the city of Sacramento.

I am a..Makeup Artist.

mac
I was introduced to the world of Makeup through my mother. She taught me the function of each brush, how to keep a steady hand, color combinations, skin tones, skin care and most of all to let my imagination create beauty.

FACES ARE MY CANVAS
