#RISEUPSHOWUPUNITE #BRINGONTHEBALLOT

A series of digital illustrations to encourage people to vote in the 2020 election. 

What began as a quarantine hobby and reaction to 2020 political events, eventually became a campaign to get out the vote. Inspired by the 100-day selfie illustration challenge I had just completed, I created a few designs referencing past voting selfies. A few of my favorite designers posted about the Rise Up. Show Up. Unite. campaign to help elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris; so I added the appropriate messaging, logo, and hashtags to my posts, and was elated when they re-posted two of my designs on the campaign’s official Instagram page and website. A few months later, one of the founders of the “for Gen Z, by Gen Z” organization—Bring On The Ballot—asked if they could display six of my political illustrations in their virtual exhibition: Our Vote, Our Reality.
