#WCW Yessica Jimenez (Xerione Illustration)

If you haven't heard of this #WCW in 2015, you may need to relearn your alphabet.

In 2015, her "Milwaukee Hip-Hop Alphabet," not only represented MKE's ever growing musical talent but also showcased her skills with a pencil. The alphabet (shown below) introduced some of Milwaukee's artists to the public and even brought together the arts community and the hip-hop community to collaborate more often, and you know we love that!

Yessica aka Xeroine is an illustrator as well as an extremely talented photographer. In her work you can see a mixture of influences from her Mexican roots, urban background, as well as her love for traditional anime and line drawing.

She's always creating and we can't wait to see what she has next for us.

Maybe a mural on the side of a building dedicated to Milwaukee's hip-hop scene? Or a whole gallery of Xeroine Illustrations? Or maybe she will finally be able to finish her alphabet with the final missing letter? Know any hip-hop artist with a 'U' in their name?

Anyhow, see her work below and if you can't wait to work with her, feel free to reach out at yessicajimenezmke@gmail.com or like her facebook page for more updates.

#WCW – Rachel Hughes

Milwaukee-based artist, Rachel Hughes first grabbed our attention with an almost complete series for the collective New Age Narcissism. The bold portraits infused the vibe of each artist and Rachel’s unique style onto a wood pallet that no one would want to take their eyes off.

Most of Rachel’s work combines wood, acrylic paint, ink and sharpie to create pieces focusing on the women figure and the culture that surrounds Dia de los Muertos (The Day of the Dead).

And we love it.

But what does she do when she’s not creating masterpieces? Well a little birdy told CopyWrite she’s incredible at a multitude of different crafts, including creating some designs for your favorite Milwaukee night bars. Bad Genie, anyone?

Check out more of her work below and maybe even get a commissioned piece. We know we can’t wait for ours.

#WCW - Lucy Lucy

Say word up to our WCW, Lucy Lucy.

As a Melbourne-based street artist, Lucy Lucy takes fashion illustrations and women portraits to a whole new level.

With a range of ethnicities, cultures and patterns contrasted with brick, spray paint and maybe a canvas or two, Lucy’s art inspires CopyWrite’s belief that all women should strive for their biggest, boldest and most fashion-forward self.

Look at some of her work below and let us know who our next WCW should be.
