Artwork Summary:

Mama Macia is a one-of-one original Jamaican painting by Preston Mitchell that celebrates Black motherhood, cultural identity, and ancestral strength rooted in the Caribbean. The artwork presents a serene Black woman in profile with her eyes closed, capturing a moment of reflection and spiritual calm. Her natural hair forms the shape of Jamaica, anchoring the composition to the island as a powerful symbol of heritage and home.

A flowing green headwrap moves across the painting, representing growth, life, and connection to the land. Rich brown skin tones and bold red lips express beauty, dignity, and emotional depth. The vibrant yellow background reflects the warmth, energy, and sunlight of the Caribbean.

This original artwork stands as a tribute to Jamaican culture and the resilience of Black women. Mama Macia explores themes of motherhood, legacy, and cultural pride. It is an ideal statement piece for collectors seeking authentic Jamaican art, Caribbean wall art, or contemporary Afro-Caribbean portrait paintings.
