4 rough dudes in high visibility yellow shirts. Shorty in the front ready to fight you because he ain’t taking your shit. Middle dude on the left has gas station sunglasses tucked in his collar. He’s rubbing his sore wrist. Middle dude on the right is leaning on his tool handle. Dude in the back doesn’t like your vibe. Background is purple and blue with silhouetted power lines and 4 various worksite warnings for commuters. The dudes have haircuts that are utilitarian by design. Their skin is stylized in vibrant pinks and purples.

The Highlighter Boiz. The new blue collar is hi-viz yellow. The true life blood of our economy. They keep the roads paved and the grid juicing so that the spice may flow.
