Questions Collectors Ask

What is Brown Sugar about?

Black girls together, caught in unguarded happiness. Bright color, expressive faces, nothing staged. It's about girlhood being allowed to be loud, which is a freedom Black girls are often denied early.

Is this suitable for a girls' shared room?

It's a common choice for sisters sharing a room, since there's more than one girl in it and neither has to be the one who isn't pictured. Portrait format. It also works in playrooms and paediatric waiting rooms.

What does it pair with?

Story Time if you want reading alongside play, or Lil Sis for a younger sibling. All three are portrait format, so a row at matching sizes hangs cleanly.

What sizes does Brown Sugar come in?

Brown Sugar comes in 12x16 inches, 16x20 inches, 18x24 inches, 24x32 inches, and 30x40 inches. Portrait format, so it wants a taller wall than a wide one. Measure the wall first and allow for the furniture below it, since a piece hung above a sofa or a bed usually needs to be wider than people expect.

Does Brown Sugar arrive ready to hang?

Six ways to take Brown Sugar: a rolled canvas print, a stretched gallery-wrapped canvas, or framed in black, walnut, gold or silver. Everything except the rolled print comes ready to hang. It's made to order in the USA, which means roughly a week door to door, and shipping costs nothing.
