I am an editorial illustrator that works in publishing and advertisement. The goal with my illustrations is to help the viewer think deeply about the text. Articles can be cold—merely reporting facts or sharing a story without the personal details. My illustrations allow you to understand the article on a personal level, making it easier to connect to and adding a deeper layer to the piece. Enjoy!

    All the while erasing America's first spokesperson who is black and made a fortune off Aunt Jemima. Way to go woke crowd

    You do know that the pictures on these bottles (and boxes of rice, etc._) were, until fairly recently, darned near caricatures, and showed African-Americans in clothing of servitude, right?

    They should put their energy in more industrious endeavors. It's getting out of hand. Next thing the woke crowd will be saying "he punched me and I got a white eye."

    BLM is about deaths and unfair treatment of minorities by law enforcement spanning decades/centuries. Jan 6 was about people throwing a temper tantrum because their candidate lost in an election where their side did all they could to suppress minority votes.

    Official drivers: Leilla Lomardi, Williams, Giovanna Amanti, Brabham. Test drivers: Sussie Wolff, Williams. Tatiana Calderón, Alfa Romero. BTW, this can be like the tweet of Burger King in march 8: Woman belong to the kitchen. Mentioning there are more male chefs than woman. maybe woman don't want to be F1 drivers.
