Alicia Brown is a visual artist born in Jamaica and based in Florida. The Crown, her painting-turned-postcard this month, features a figure adorned with natural, everyday objects shaped into a crown and collar that references those worn by European aristocrats during the Renaissance.

In this chat, Alicia talks about her story as an artist, why she is drawn to portraiture, and the inspiration behind how she created her painting, The Crown.
