When building an illustration I want to bring questions to the viewer. With the use of humor and loosely factual information the intent is to make any subject matter approachable. Raising the viewers' interest in topics that I see needing to be addressed or changed.
The most expensive American presidential race ever was filled with corporate media and major party campaigns utilizing pseudonyms (ex: Rockstar and Maverick) to infer a type of character on the candidates. The aftermath was a greatly divided country with an overwhelming amount of negative campaigning, often hypocritical and misleading. The works intent is to take these implications and elaborate, creating its' own contradictive propaganda. I believe these characterizations were slanted and I want to tip the scales, make fun, and say, "Yes, we can."
