A pencil sketch of a person taking a mirror selfie, standing in a relaxed pose with one hip slightly out. They’re wearing a hoodie and socks, and appear to be pushing the hoodie outward with one hand, which exaggerates the shape of their midsection. A colorful cartoon crown sticker covers their eyes. Flame emojis are placed over the hips and upper thigh area for modesty and emphasis. On the right, a partial mirror reflection shows the same figure from the side. The drawing has a loose, in-progress feel on textured paper.
A detailed pencil drawing of a person taking a mirror selfie. They wear a baseball cap, glasses, a hoodie, and socks, standing with one hip slightly angled and holding a phone up to take the picture. The hoodie is pushed outward, creating an exaggerated curve at the midsection. A red chili pepper emoji is placed over the hip/thigh area for modesty. On the right, a mirror reflects the figure from the side. The scene includes a tiled floor and a small round table or stool in the foreground, with the drawing rendered in a warm, textured style.
Still working on him. It’s a little lazy because i only used two pencils lol. He’s not pregnant just using his other hand inside the hoodie to stretch it out he’s in a dressing room. A pepper because it’s spicy lol.

2/2
Crowds lined up to laugh, pose, and sit on it—because the symbol is unmistakable: excess, ego, spectacle. This isn’t distortion; it’s recognition. The installation doesn’t mock power—it reflects what power chose to become. #ArtAsResistance #FreeSpeech
Work-in-progress pencil sketch of a person’s face and upper torso, drawn at a slight diagonal angle. The figure wears a knit beanie and large over-ear headphones, with a calm, slightly smiling expression and relaxed eyes. The facial features are softly shaded, with attention to the lips, cheeks, and a bit of texture along the chin. The nose and eyes are lightly detailed, giving a gentle, expressive look. The figure appears to be wearing a simple shirt, with only the neckline and shoulders loosely outlined. Most of the detail is concentrated in the face, while the rest of the body remains minimal and unfinished. The lines are sketchy and organic, with visible pencil strokes and light cross-hatching that emphasize the piece as a work in progress. The overall style feels intimate and expressive, capturing mood more than precision. The background is blank, and the drawing is clearly in an early stage, inviting future layers such as ink, watercolor, pastel, or other mixed media.
Current work in progress. Pencil and ink rn… maybe it will be a watercolor. Or pastel? Or crayon? Ion know. What do y’all think!?!?!

Art as Resistance Is Getting Louder (And I’m Seeing It Everywhere)— Art as resistance isn’t quiet anymore — it’s stitched, yarnbombed, quilted, and shared, turning creativity into good trouble you can’t unsee. Once you start noticing craftivism, you see it everywhere.

Make love louder than hate.
Cut, torn, layered, and reassembled—because softness is not weakness, and love is not quiet. Love is resistance. Love is volume. Love is choice.

Art is not optional in hard times.
It’s how we remember, connect, and resist.
If you’re writing—you’re already doing something.

In black ink: I don’t care if you think your art sucks or the algorithm doesn’t like it, make it anyway, share it anyway. There is a figure resting at the bottom of the image.
Make it anyway. Share it anyway.

Mixed media artwork depicting a solitary human figure walking from left to right across a textured, layered surface. The background is composed of dark, earthy tones that gradually transition into a strong beam of bright light entering from the right side of the image. The figure appears in silhouette, positioned at the boundary between shadow and illumination. The surface shows rough, cracked textures with subtle color gradations, emphasizing contrast between darkness and light without identifiable landmarks.
"Irán a la luz"
In Spanish, Irán also means "they will go" — they will go to the light.
A future written as movement.
A body advancing where light becomes decision.
Not prophecy — persistence.

This piece stayed unfinished until it didn’t.
Short. Thick. Confident. Bold. Sexy.
Sexy is for self. For ease. For showing up as we are.
Old-school watercolor. A body at home, taking up space unapologetically.

No human is illegal. These pieces are made as a reminder. ✊🏼🫶🏼
I threw these fast and left them raw.
Because polish would feel dishonest.
These pieces are about immigration, human rights, and the anger I’m carrying right now. #ArtWithPurpose #ArtAsResistance #nohumanisillegal
