Artwork Summary:

Magic Melanin is an original one-of-one painting by Preston Mitchell. This work represents spirit, ancestry, and unseen power. She is not human. She is mythical. She exists beyond the physical world.

Her white eyes signify spirit presence. They do not represent sight. They represent knowing. She sees beyond time, space, and form. She exists as energy rather than identity.

Her melanin is portrayed as magic, not biology. Her skin holds power, memory, and protection. The markings reference ritual, culture, and ancestral language. Her afro becomes a crown. Her hair transforms into an aura.

The warm background contrasts with her deep tones. This creates balance between softness and strength. Mystery and clarity exist together. She remains calm, grounded, and aware.

Magic Melanin honors ancestral energy and spiritual identity. She represents Blackness as divine and timeless. This is not a portrait. It is a manifestation. A reminder that spirit lives within the form, but is never confined by it.
