Also, Lifesavers Fan Art is a collaborative pro-mask project that you’re welcome to make art for like these artists have. All you have to do is choose a pop culture character you love, make an image of the character wearing a blue surgical mask, and share it with me and with everyone you know!
VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
Back-to-school when I was a kid was equal parts dread and excitement. On the one hand I was a massive dork, so being around more kids more of the time meant getting made fun of more. On the other hand, I was a massive dork, and I loved the learning part of school.
But that was thirty years ago. In 2021, the dread associated with back-to-school is something completely different. If you’re a kid who understands the pandemic at all or understands the epic way in which we are failing at this group project of not dying en masse, I can’t even imagine what this is like for you. But if you know one such kid or if you are a bigger version of that kid, also known as an adult who has a brain, then I have a present for you. It’s this sticker sheet of Lifesavers Fan Art!
The only way to get it is to support my art on Patreon for $2 or more a month, but you must sign up before the end of August to get these masked up versions of SpongeBob, Rainbow Dash, Yoda, Pikachu, Dora, and Lisa.
And if you pledge $8 or more a month, I will keep sending you new stickers and magnets and postcards every month! A tiny bright spot in the unbearable uncertainty of this pandemic.
Does this post make you think of something you want to share with me? Do you have a question about my art or my career? Do you want to say hello?
