Addie Rawr supports the health of the mind, body, and spirit through unique products and nurturing community activities. Established in 2013, we have served thousands of Black women with paintings, illustrations, and resources that embrace representation and advocate for mutual support. After undergoing several life changes, Addie Rawr pivoted to share values centered around cultivating a healthy and gentle life with God at the core. We're not your average brand; we infuse illustrated creativity, handcrafted recipes, and soulfulness into everything we do.

Her creative journey began in 2012 while she was completing her degree at Virginia Commonwealth University in Creative Advertising, leading to the founding of the former company, Art & Ambition Studios, a community for Black artists and designers. Growing up in Norfolk, VA, Adrienne always held a passion for the arts and proudly displayed her creative side. Presently, she uses her skills to create unique products for Addie Rawr, consult, and design for small businesses worldwide while supporting Black authors daily.
