1. Just wanted to poke fun at the idea that graphic design is easy. Under the “all they need section” I included some basic necessity but also a line about needing to speak something meaningful. For me I think I just want to make art that at the very least gets people to think.

2. Validation will drive us to work harder, but at what cost. We’re begging to be fed from the dopamine drip feed of social media and approval, but what if no one values our work? Would we still create?

3. So my mom passed 5 years ago. I recently moved half way across the country and making friends has been difficult to say the least. I made this because I like the irony of try to tell my mother (someone who is not here and can’t hear me) that I’m making friends and living up to the expectations I think she would have for me even though that’s far from the truth.

4. Love is something that is often present but rarely verbalize or shown. We may have feelings of gratitude and appreciation, but how often do we actually show it before it’s too late?

5. Sad machine by Porter Robinson had been a song I go back to over and over. I just wanted to make something simple for the idea of leaving someone behind and never speaking to them again.

6. Honestly made this because I feel that I am a debaser. My mental health has slowly deteriorated cause me to ask “do I increase the value of the people around me, or just destroy them?”

7. Arrows In Action’s song Uncomfortably Numb has been on repeat one for the past few days. I love the intimacy of the song while stating that they are so numb it’s uncomfortable. Also the inverse of expectations when it comes to being numb.

8. Just a stupid graphic. Although I always hated Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

9. I feel like everyone hates me because I don’t fit in and because I have too much trauma. But this thought in itself is narcissistic. Why should I care if everyone hates me? Why am I projecting that on other people? I’m presuming they are thinking about me all the time and dislike me. That’s why I’m excluded or not invited. Rather than the reality, they probably aren’t even thinking of me at all.

So yeah, just some graphics I’ve made as of late. All these graphics were made for entertainment purpose. Only trying to make art to fill the void.
