Some stories stay with you long after you turn the last page. Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God is one of those stories for me—and one of my favorite books. So, creating a painting of Janie and Tea Cake for a coffee blend bearing their names felt especially meaningful.
I recently collaborated with The Blacker the Coffee Co. along with designer and artist Britt Webber, on their signature Janie & Tea Cake blend. My painting brings these familiar characters from the page to the coffee bag—and now, to your walls.
