Jessica, Kay-Kay and Ashley by Marius Mason

A woman with brown skin and hair pulled up into yellow ribbons stands confidently with eyes cast down. She has red lips and is wearing a grey-blue sweatshirt. She stands in front of an impressionistic pink, grey and blue background. Above her to the left in a fancy, semi-cursive font it read “Jessica” in black writing.

A figure with black hair parted in the middle, wearing a white buttoned top and slacks stands in front of a curving rainbow against an impressionistic pink, grey and blue background. The figure has one hand on their hip, and their other hand is put up against their cheek in a playful, confident pose. They’re also smiling slightly and wearing sunglasses. Above and to the left, in a fancy, semi-cursive font it reads “Kay-Kay” in black writing.

From the right hand corner of the image, a light-skinned woman peeks out with her head tilted to the left. She has black hair that is pulled back and is wearing a white shirt. She looks directly out at the viewer of the image. To the left and right of her head are a red squiggly line surrounded by a series of lines in brown. She is standing against an impressionistic watercolor background that is dark grey, teal, green, blue, and light grey like the colors of a storm. Above and to the left of her in blue lettering it reads “Ashley.”
