Nostalgic Photos ๐ท ๐ ๐
there is something horrifically grim to it, but illustrations for gaza and palestinians tend to catch more mass attention that actual photos of people. this made me feel incredibly helpless for a long while, seeing both how people would rather look at a neat drawing of red black green and white than look๏ฟผ a human in the eyes, and how online platforms would rather push a viral drawing while suppressing those begging for help at the same time.
a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.
if art gets better traction, then thereโs an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.
within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gazaโs fundraiser. itโs a small effort in the grand scheme of things. itโs not a fix it. but itโs something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.
here is bashar. iโve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all
Leon unintentionally dyed his hair his Dadโs color when he was 19.
However he's a true brunette like his Mom.
Was a mamaโs boy up until his teens.
His Mom worked as a school librarian and his Dad worked in finance.
They had Leon when they were 21 - 25. (Canโt make up my mind on this one)
Loraine always wanted to be Firefighter but gave it up when she was pregnant with Leon. (Donโt worry. She never held any resentment toward him.)
Blessed with his Momโs thick hair.
Doesn't really keep in contact with his parents but knows they are still alive. (This Infinite Darkness Leon)
Iโm going leave how they fell out up for interpretation until I can decide how it happened.
But it did happen slowly during his teens when he moved to Chicago for high school.
