Hey! I’m Shanee Benjamin, ur local colour loving, 1970’s fashion obsessed, art director and illustrator from Brooklyn, NY.

 
 

In 2013, I started my journey as a graphic designer.

My first experience started with an internship for AFROPUNK, and from there I passionately pursued a design career!

Today, I focus on providing art direction, and illustration to share diverse and authentic queer, and black stories!

With almost a decade of design experience, I made the leap into digital illustration, focusing on passionately telling the stories of LGBTQIA+ black and brown folks. Creating community and connection through art is my passion.
