In light of the trial I wanted to share this design again, it seems fitting. I'm not very optimistic unfortunately but here's hoping something changes for the better. I miss seeing my best friend smile.
As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from my designs are for my Palestinian best friend, to help him support his girlfriend in remaining safely in America until things calm down and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
All my designs can be found here (Redbubble will display them on a random product, click on each to see more product options). Edit: collections cap out at 100 products apparently, so from now on see my full range of designs here on my main page (I have temporarily removed all designs not related to Palestine).
Here is a small sample of my other designs:
I have 97 designs/variants of designs in my shop and counting. All available on a wide range of products. Thank you so much to everyone who has helped out, I hope you are enjoying your shirts, stickers, notebooks, pins and various other things.
I made two new text designs for my fundraiser, found here and here. I really like the green one, I think it will make good stickers.

My best friend (an absolutely brilliant scientist and compassionate social activist, seriously the best person ever) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family all around the Levant are being affected by the war. I have recently started adding Palestine related designs to my shop and I will continue to do so. Any and all money from those will go first and foremost to making sure his girlfriend gets to America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this.

Trying something a little different today, here's my first attempt at pixel art. The design can be found here, it was made with stickers in mind but it is available on a lot of products.

Here are some examples of products with this design: a sticker, poster and pin. I'll probably try to make a few more pixel art things sometime in the next couple weeks and then put some of them together in a sticker pack for people who want small versions (extra tiny stickers seem to me to suite this art style well).
Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far! We greatly appreciate it.
No new design approvals seem to be happening with the holiday, so here are my most popular Palestine designs so far (shown here on stickers):
I want to thank everyone who has pitched in to help my best friend. For those who have not seen my posts my best friend in the world is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family all around the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries (West Bank stuff in particular has been rough for them). We're also on limited budgets as grad students, and I really don't want him to feel pressured to neglect school to support his family. He's an absolutely brilliant scientist and deserves to be able to focus on his research (as well as he can through the emotional toll this has taken of course). So, I'm selling Palestine related art and ALL PROCEEDS will go to him to help him get his loved ones through this. Honestly I didn't expect fundraising like this to do anything, but you all have been amazing!
I have a really happy update, his girlfriend should be arriving here in America imminently! You all helped pay for her flight and are helping cover their housing, so thank you so much! I really hope you are all enjoying the stickers, shirts, mugs and all the other stuff you have bought! From now on all money raised goes to supporting her stay here and continuing to give my friend the means to help his family back home. Anything he doesn't end up needing he is planning on donating to the various Palestinian charities he works with.
All designs above (and a ton more) are found here (Redbubble will show you a random product, click on each to see more product options). They're available on stickers, shirts, pins, and many other products. Some examples:
My best friend is an absolutely brilliant scientist and all around amazing person. He genuinely tries to help everyone he meets. He'll interrupt a lunch to go buy lunch for the homeless people too. He's been involved in activism for more causes than I can count, often for things (like LGBTQ+ issues) that don't affect him personally, just because it's the right thing to do. He takes care of everyone else even when he doesn't have much for himself.
He is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family all around the Levant are being hurt either directly or financially by the war. Those of you who have been following this account know that for a little over a week now I have been adding Palestine related designs to my Redbubble shop. ALL PROCEEDS from these will go first and foremost to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this war.
Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far!
(available on shirts, bags, stickers, pins, etc.)
Here's a sample of some of the things that have sold from my fundraising shop recently. Sorry I've been so checked out, we're super busy with the student protests here. I encourage everyone to get involved with whatever your campus is doing for Palestine!

I've been saving this bubble graphic for a while, I found this nice Dome of the Rock image on Pixabay and I really love how the colors work together! I think it would make a great sticker.

He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
The Dome of the Rock is a shrine in the Al-Aqsa mosque compound in Jerusalem. It's the oldest surviving work of Islamic architecture. The iconic gold color was actually added starting in 1959, before that the dome was covered in blackened lead.
Here is the above printed on a few things (shirts, sticker, pin, hoodie):

Edit: It's back
I just received notice that one of my most popular works, this dove, has been taken down for review. It should hopefully be back up by tomorrow, this was likely just triggered by my updating the product description. Every single work I've made related to Palestine has needed manual review at least once, it's default for "controversial" topics. In the mean time I have plenty of other designs in my shop here including a few variations on this one.

Starving grad student running a small Redbubble shop (initially for side income, now for fundraising for my Palestinian friend). Made this blog to share my designs, found here: https://www.redbubble.com/people/fairiedance/shopMy best friend (an absolutely brilliant scientist and compassionate social activist, seriously the best person ever) is a Palestinian grad student studying in America, and a lot of his friends and family are being affected by the genocide in Gaza and the fallout in the West Bank and surrounding areas. I have started selling Palestine related designs in my shop. EVERYTHING I RAISE he sends to his loved ones to help in various ways as the situation progresses.Designs not related to Palestine have been removed from my shop for now (probably for good at this point).
