Diversity Enmeshed Kids T-Shirt

This digital artwork conveys the message that diversity is a part of everything we do. So this was a creation I did pretty early on working with digital art, if you can't already tell. This was a period in which I was in to trying to have text sort of blend into the background of the art. I drew everything using lines, except for the "s", which you can see I drew (it's shakier than the line art). I used a mouse or touchpad as my pen, which was how I've drawn & painted digitally for most of my digital artwork. I don't think I knew how to make curves back then, so you see the result. I'm always surprised when this piece sells either as a print or on other merchandise, because it looks so... rough to me. I may try to re-create it one of these days and see what I'd make now with a lot more experience using digital media.

I am a self-taught artist. I work with various mediums including acrylic, watercolors, pastels, graphic arts, film, digital photography, and digital imaging. Much of my work involves mixed mediums. I am also a portrait artist and illustrator, heavily influenced and inspired by the communities in which I have lived. I also enjoy illustrating sports scenes, painting portraits, and drawing cartoons. I take on limited freelance work, so please contact me if you are interested in having a portrait or caricature made.
