Aziza Illustrates
During childhood, it was difficult to find representation in everyday items. When it came to cards, my family had a very small selection of black greeting cards to choose from. In 2018 I started Aziza Illustrates to fill the gap, producing products featuring Black people. Every card is a piece of artwork designed to reflect the warmth of our community. Aziza Illustrates has also collaborated with other businesses, creating patterns, illustrations, logos and much more! The name Aziza means cherished, precious and beloved. I hope you will feel this way when you give or receive a product from Aziza Illustrates

Her debut novel The Masterpiece, book 1 in The Shadow I Cast series is an introduction to her Nicelyverse bridging the figurative with the literal enhanced with her dreams and intuition.
