Number 106 of 150

This batch is Southeast Asian people.

A reminder, since it’s been awhile, of what these images are. These are art samples of the work I did for Learning A-Z last year. The project called for 150 unique characters, isolated on white, with an emphasis on diversity (age, race, body size, ability, and gender identity). To make certain we included examples of all major racialized populations, all but two batches were designed to represent specific races.

Technical note:
This site is hosted on WordPress.com. I use automated social media posting with their JetPack plug-in to reduce the amount of manual posting I have to do. Previously, twitter was one of the companies that was supported for auto posting. I hadn’t used this feature for several months since I deleted my twitter account. However, today I noticed that, as of May 18th, twitter is no longer supported at all, which I thought was interesting. More on that. In addition, they added support for auto posting on Mastodon and Instagram. This is excellent news as that takes care of 2 of the 3 sites I was still manually posting to. This will be a helpful time saver. Anyway, I just set up auto posting for Mastodon and Instagram and I’ll be watching this post to make sure it all works correctly. Hopefully it will. 🙂

A little Southeast Asian girl walking to school, isolated on white.  She has one hand up in a wave and is walking to the viewer's right.  Her black hair is pulled back in a ponytail.  She's wearing a purple backpack and carrying a pink insulated lunch pack decorated with hearts and peace signs.  She's wearing a white empire waisted blouse with short puffed sleeves.  Her jeans are rolled up to capri-length.  Her shoes are pink, slide-on sneakers.

Dead Bird

I’m probably not the first one that’s made this connection, but I thought I’d whip this up real fast. Using both twitter’s old and new logos.

Or is it better flipped?
