Mami Wata
Mami Wata is a West African spirit of the waters known for her wealth, great wisdom, and preternatural powers of seduction. She is said to appear to those she favors as an elegantly dressed woman, who hides her scaly tail beneath opulent fabrics.

St. Louis 2nd Line
I’ve spent more than my fair share of time in the French Quarter. St. Louis Cathedral has always been one of my favorite spots, even as a kid growing up in New Orleans. It’s iconic. If you visit the city, you’ll get a chance to hear the talented street musicians both young and old. Available in high quality giclee prints reproduced on archival paper, each print is hand-embellished and signed by Lionel Milton.
"We in em Streets."
Live music is everywhere in New Orleans. You don’t have to go looking for it, in New Orleans the music comes to you. Any given Sunday a second-line parade can pop up; and like any true New Orleanian, we join in, ‘Cause we in dem' streets.’ Available in high quality giclee prints reproduced on archival paper, each print is hand-embellished and signed by Lionel Milton.
