ABOUT
RECOGNITION

My name is Natasha Marcano Dillon. I'm from Trinidad and Tobago, but now I live in New York with my family. I am a high school teacher and in my free time, I create art. In 2019, I used charcoal for my portraits since it was easy to work with, and I had two young boys around. Recently, I have been exploring a more playful style with vibrant colors while maintaining a painterly yet graphic look. Specifically, I focus on portraying black women with natural hair, such as afros and locs, using soft pastels. My art aims to showcase the strength of black women and incorporate their hair as part of their representation. Also, I use charcoal to make more realistic depictions of my portraits.
