Lucy Hicks Anderson | Original Art | Trans History | Gouache | 6 in x 9 in
This year to celebrate Women’s History Month I decided I wanted to create a series of paintings of influential Trans women. With the laws being passed around the United States right now, it felt particularly important to honor our Trans elders. I also wanted to support the LGBT+ individuals currently in Ukraine. 60% of the proceeds of these original pieces will be donated to Insight Ukraine. I really do wish I could donate 100% of the proceeds but I am not at a point where I am able to eat the cost of these prints and shipping them. Maybe someday!
Lucy Hicks Anderson (1886–1954) is considered to be one of the first recorded African American Transgender Women, and she was quite a successful businesswoman and cook in her own right. If you would like to learn more about Lucy Hick Anderson you can read the Not Just Cistory blog post I wrote about her.
