Back to My Roots: Part 1

Description

Copypaste: So my aunt asked me to draw a bunch of art to put on the walls of her daycare. She wanted them by the time she'd come down from Tennessee and from the time she asked, I was pretty much given less than a month while I was still really busy with other stuff. She also said she was "very picky" about what she wanted although she never said what it was she was looking for. So I just drew a bunch of my characters really fast. In the end, she only wanted African American characters-- or characters that could pass as African American. I didn't actually get them printed and she requested me to do everything in a different way though, so none of these actually ended up on her wall. Lol /copypaste

SO this one passed the "African American" criteria my aunt had and she loved it, but as I said, I didn't print any anyway. To be honest, this was mostly just coloring style practice and I threw it in, ha hah.;; BUT It is part of a project I wanted to try out which kinda... explores designs which display black characters but also incorporates nature. In other words, my interpretations of Mother Nature (maybe Father Nature as well, I dunno) or exploring that concept-- (that was supposed to be my Halloween costume this year by the way. OTL ) There's an underlying message that I'll probably explain in another part of this project. So I'm going to be making more of these-- probably not in this style. This lazy coloring practice is part one. :U Hopefully not the rest.
