Lizelle Jackson // Co-Founder Color The Water
Lizelle Jackson said being active is a part of her DNA. She was a 2-sport collegiate athlete that competed in volleyball professionally while living in Switzerland. When her professional career ended, she found a way to channel her energy into outdoor adventures by becoming an active travel guide. She spent 10 years guiding cycling and hiking trips in over 15 countries around the world, and it was during her time working in Costa Rica that she was able to learn how to surf. Being outside and in nature is where she feels most herself, whether it’s training with Team Onyx—a multi-sport team of Black endurance athletes—or chasing waves along the California coast with Color the Water - an organization she co-founded, dedicated to fighting racism through free surf lessons and media for Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) in the LA area.
“The sea possesses a power over one’s moods that has the effect of a will. The sea can hypnotize. Nature in general can do so.” – Henrik Ibsen
The "Wade in the Water" limited-edition portrait series showcases activists, pioneers, and future leaders in SoCal’s BIPOC surf community adorned with the leaves of Afrocarpus gracilior, aka the African Fern Pine.
