A Belizean-American visual artist and muralist specializing in oil painting, acrylics, and large-scale indoor and outdoor murals. Born in Miami, Florida, after her parents immigrated from Belize in 1996, her perspective as the only American-born child in her family drives her artistic exploration of identity, lineage, and belonging.

Waight’s work serves as a personal journey of cultural discovery and memory. Her ancestry forms the passion of her portfolio. Her mother is a Mopan Maya woman from San Jose Village in Punta Gorda, Belize, while her father’s complex, multi-ethnic lineage remains a source of ongoing study. Through her medium, her paintings dive into foundational beginnings, cultural origins, and the nuanced layers of identity.

Expanding her narrative scope during her undergraduate studies, Waight began addressing pressing social realities, including themes of tokenism, code-switching, and systemic injustice. This body of work confronts societal divisions while fostering understanding and connection.

Stylistically, Waight defines herself as an expressive realism painter. Rather than pursuing photorealism, she embraces visible, expressive brushstrokes and rich color mixing to render vibrant skin tones. By balancing brushstrokes with smooth transitions, her work captures the vitality of human emotion while evoking a deep sense of stillness, memory, and calmness.
