Piece description from the artist
This illustration was originally created for Creative Action Network's "What Makes America Great" campaign, in which they displayed a new poster every day of Trump's first 100 days in office. Each artist chose a different topic that they believe makes our country special, and I knew I had to use mine as a reminder about the kind-hearted, beautiful people in this nation that are often overlooked, because the cruel ones are so loud.
*The original illustration is on white, not on pink, so if you want to purchase the original art, it won't have the same background.
Caitlin B. Alexander is an illustrator based in Austin, Texas with a particular love for dry-brush gouache painting. Both her life and work are heavily influenced by the aesthetics of the 1940's, '50s and '60s. She fancies herself a collector of memories as much as a collector of things, and enjoys bringing this sense of nostalgia to her audience.
Some of her favorite niches within illustration are hand-lettered poster design, repeat-patterns, picture books, and art licensing onto home goods. She also enjoys doing custom work for clients, and focuses a lot on selling her own products.
Caitlin attended the Savannah College of Art and Design, with a focus on Illustration and Printmaking, and graduated in 2011. Over the last six years, she has created work for National Geographic Learning, the Texas Board of Tourism, Ladybug Magazine, the Texas Farmers' Markets, and many more.
