One of my illustration challenges I made for #Peacetober over on instagram featuring my OC Ava. Challenge hosted by coffeesforgaza. Definitely recommend checking out their page they do amazing work with helping Palestinian families.
#OC #KidlitArt
I remember my puppy named Blackie. It was the largest of its siblings, with white fur and few brown spots on its face, shoulders, rump. One day, all the puppies in the litter started fighting each other. First, they ganged up on the youngest, littlest puppy. When they were all bloodied red, they turned on the eldest. I never petted Blackie’s soft head, not even once. The puppies laid on concrete, because it was too hot out in the tropics. I remember the smell of a rotting corpse. A mangled puppy, buried under rubble. The flies swarmed spotted, white fur.
Day 9: Black #Peacetober
More #Inktober pieces. Liking my #peacetober piece, and enjoying the species chosen for #biodiversidadentinta
Wake up, you children of the wilds. A thousand knives are falling from the sky, raining iron over earth. See, the mountains bleed, sliced apart. Cry if you must, but do not sleep to the shrieking lullaby, their songs of steel and booming voices. Lift your heads. Clench your teeth. You are beasts with ravenous mouths. In the dark, your eyes flash white and hot. You must not run. You must not hide. Catch a shooting star atop your back and wish for death upon the storm, whose hands wield bolts of lightning, sharp and pointed. Be strong, fearless, free.

I aimed for 6 pieces for #peacetober but needed to stop at 4 due to worsening chronic pain situation that I can't get support for where I'm at. Trying to get used to working slower but it's hard. Grateful for what I made/contributed anyway. #disabledartist
A hand-drawn digital illustration artwork by the artist Dhiyanah Hassan showing a detailed close-up of a red poppy flower. Within the folds of its petals and at the center of the flower is a mouth with scary looking sharp teeth inside, opened in a roar. Below this flower are smaller poppies with tired eyes in the center. In the background is a blur of soft pastel and dark colors with rays of sunlight and spots of shadow.
My 4th artwork, accompanied by poetry*, for #peacetober combines the prompts, Poppy + Song.
"A Roaring Grief" contemplates mourning & resistance as action and prayer for reparations.

An illustration by the artist Dhiyanah Hassan of two figures each standing in a body of water that meets in the middle like currents that meet without colliding. The figures and landscape elements are drawn in surrealistic proportions. On the left a small girl in a raincoat watches a seedling grow into a sprout that holds a heart shape above it. She stares at it intently among floating islands with hills, sand dunes, and forests. On the right is a woman or femme person in a purple coat carrying a large old school style travel suitcase brimming with plants, bits of paper, and a kuffiyeh scarf. She is wearing glasses and is acknowledging the small girl on the other side as she walks among large paper boats.there are birds flying over the bodies of water, crossing the threshold.
My third artwork for #peacetober is a combo of the prompts Trip & River.
A contemplation of how personal & collective griefs reflect one another. Of the quiet resilience it takes to keep going anyway, finding ways to decolonize our r'ship w each other + Life.

Did you know that a fig wasp must crawl into the bud, into a post-flower bloom & give her body - her life - for it to turn into figs?

An illustration by the artist Dhiyanah Hassan showing two hands with palms facing up and slightly towards each other as if in prayer motion. Nestled in the hands is a dog torn in half, with the face of a sleeping girl inside it. In the background are leaves, fig leaves, fig flowers, their buds, and a fig wasp drawn against a decorative symmetrical background.
