Installation of Phase II of the Jxn Icons – Jackson, Mississippi

Welcome in.

I’m Reshonda — artist, muralist, graphic designer, storyteller, community builder, and proud Mississippi native. I’ve been painting, creating, and dreaming in color for over 20 years now, but lately, I’ve been feeling like it’s time to let you in on more than just the finished work.

So, welcome to the Pixels & Paint blog — the space where I get to show you the why and the how behind the art.

If you know me, you know I’m all about connection. I don’t just slap paint on walls. I collaborate with communities, dig into histories, pull out stories, and bring them to life in bold, vibrant ways. Every brushstroke is intentional. Every project is personal. And through this blog, I want to give you a front-row seat to the process.

I love honoring Mississippi’s story — it’s my heart, my home, and my inspiration. But I’ll gladly walk wherever this artistic journey takes me. Whether I’m painting in a small Southern town or a bustling city halfway across the country, I bring the same passion for storytelling and place-making with me.

From sketchbook scribbles to wall-sized realities, from tiny sparks of inspiration to full-blown neighborhood transformations — I’ll be sharing the behind-the-scenes of my latest projects, the people who inspire them, and the impact they’re making.

This blog is for the curious, the creative, the dreamers, and the doers. I hope you’ll stick around. We’ve got some beautiful things to create — and even better stories to tell.
