#192: Yes, Lioness! (Friday, September 3)

I first heard of Marjorie when I was doing the magazine years ago. Someone recommended her artwork and tees. At the time, she was living out of the country, so I didn't actually meet her until years later, but when I did, she was just as endearing in person as her artwork suggests.

Marjorie is an artist, illustrator, entrepreneur and creator of the website Yes Lioness. For the non-Caribbean among us, the phrase "Yes Lioness" is typically a greeting used by Rastafarians to acknowledge a black woman who is perceived to be powerful, strong and the embodiment of a queen. (Dontchya love it?!)

I love her work. She has artwork, clothing, greeting cards and even cute yoga stuff. Check out her site at www.yeslioness.com and her Etsy store.

Be excellent!
