Nepotism has been making a lot of headlines recently, with Hunter Biden catching a lot of heat for riding his father’s coattails into a $600,000/year gig in Ukraine.
And while some of that heat has come from sources that are laughably ill-positioned to criticize, it’s depressingly true that the children of famous and powerful people have an easy time finding their ways into boardrooms, record deals, universities, and runways. But what about the world leader’s son who performs in drag? Or the actor’s daughter who took up painting? If we’re really going to criticize nepotism, then we should take some time to celebrate the children who step out of their parents’ shadows to do something truly original.

She says that her paintings are inspired by her belief in the Ancient Astronaut theory and the slightly more grounded desire to empower African American women. Whatever her motivations, there’s no denying that she’s incredibly talented.
