Artist Statement: I got the idea of the text from the first paragraph of the story. I thought it would really fit the theme of computer monitoring. I drew this on my phone on IbisPaint X. I think I could've added more detail yo the computer part and blended the background better, but I'm overall happy with it. I decided to make it look a bit messy to give it a more poster-y look.

Artist Statement: This artwork is a representation of the event called "Mr. Millard South" transitioning to "The Ultimate Patriot", which is nonexclusive and can have girls now. I used colored pencils and black marker to create this piece. I choose the different fonts because I wanted to use a more bold straight font for the Mr. Millard south because it's more of a stern font, while on the girls side it's more light and free, just to show it's becoming something new. I learned that since I scan my artwork, yellow colored pencil is not the best for a background since it looks patchy. If I added more I would add more people in the background, and change the colored pencil to marker.

Artist Statement: When sketching out the calligraphy I wanted it to have a feeling of fancy animalistic. With sharp points at the top and bottom acting as horns and fangs. The S morphing into a tail. The background is composed of pink flames representing their chaos.
