Kevin A. Williams' collection of 50 lithograph prints created under the WAK Artistry signature is the most widely circulated urban fine arts series in the nation. Diverse in their themes, the art is painted by Williams in mixed mediums, and then produced as lithographs in various limited and broad edition quantities. Williams also creates a number of commissioned works annually.
As the best-selling artist in the African-American print market, Williams is a popular personality at national art shows, conferences of African-American groups and major international events, including the Essence Music Festival. His art has been featured on television's Law & Order (NBC) and Soul Food (Showtime).
The WAK Artistry line was launched in 1995, and began with as single print, Taking Her Back. That sparked the creation of the five-work Black Love series which brought him wide acclaim, and led to a 1997 commission from Motions, the hair-care company, to create Standing Appointment, a wildly popular work with the hair-care industry. In 1998, WAK Artistry created Cream of the Crop, a collection of fraternity and sorority images and the next year marked WAK's first appearance at the Essence Music Festival.
Recent years have included commissioned work for celebrities, such as televisions host and movie producer Oprah Winfrey and comedian Bernie Mac, as well as corporate clients. He formed SoulVisions in May 2003.
