I had the pleasure in partaking in Catch22's Black history illustration competition where I placed in the top 3.
I put a lot of thought into this piece, I wanted it to shine spotlight on to Black creatives, celebrate our culture and inspire us to keep being creative.
Catch22 Black History Month Flyer
Here's the artwork on the promotional flyer for the event.
For the background of this piece, I took inspiration from African and Caribbean art and combine that with Keith Haring graffiti style. I also took inspiration from the Hackney Peace Carnival Mural trying to capture that same energy, colour, and style for the girl in the centre.
