Persisters portraits by Jo Hay.

I had the chance to see artist Jo Hay’s huge portraits of iconic women in person last week. They are stunning. Looking at any one of them feels like making eye contact with a wise old friend telling you: you got this. Prints, posters, and pins are for sale here—the bigger the format, the more striking they are.
