I love subway art, and it’s everywhere. One of the hardest things for me has been choosing the “perfect” quote or theme though. My husband did not see or read The Help, and really had no desire to. I did tell him about poor little Mae Mobley and how I feel like I could have used Aibileen telling me “You is kind. You is smart. You is important.” every day while I was growing up. And he suggested that it was the perfect saying for my subway art. So here it is.

I haven’t quite decided whether to frame it or do a canvas print. I may still change the color of the flower to something that gives it a little pop. What do you think? Framed or canvas? Pop of color or as is?

I love it!!! I think adding a dot of color to the flower would be fun. As to what color I guess that would depend on where your gonna hang/display it. Red came to my mind since its a strong color.
Definitely add a pop of color - I think maybe canvas - but they would both look amazing. I love it and I think we all needed our own Abilene growing up :)
SO CUTE! I'm thinking a YELLOW flower, because I'm LOVING yellow! Did you make that!?!? You should offer a couple different color options blog world needs this!!!
XO, Aimee
I love it! What about making one of the chevrons in the background a pale yellow or turquoise?
Love this one too! I'm reading The Help right now too :)
I agree w/ Heather, maybe turquoise or yellow for the chevron?
I love this too! I've been starting to say this quote to my kids... :)
Thank you for making it!
