Overlay mostly works for me when i'm doing some lighting effects but as soon as it's barely visible on a character i quesiton my whole art choices

hey, #KidLitArtPostcard i try my best to capture nostalgia and whimsy in my work. i love bright swathes of colour, sketchy lines, and stories with interesting characters. i’m currently open for MG, GN, & cover work, etc. 🧃 Rep’d by Kelly Sonnack portfolio: www.MichelleWemegah.com

All Protocol Observed Welcome to Issue 218 of The Continent El Fasher has fallen — the last Darfuri city to resist the Rapid Support Forces. After a 500-day siege, the Sudanese army withdrew, leaving 250,000 civilians at the mercy of genocidal militias. bit.ly/218_TC

Little hand drawn animation and banjo theme I made. It's been a year since my brother's passing, it's hard to type stuff so l'll just let the video speak for itself. Thank you for watching. Keep going, enjoy the sandwiches.

One of my favourite things about the @thecontinent.org is the artistic/ creative direction. Every cover feels like a new piece of art. If ever your team hosts an in person exhibition @simonallison.bsky.social @wynonamutisi.bsky.social - I am there!

Powerful: current life in Goma (eastern Congo) through the medium of the comic book: “The city is stuck. It is a purgatory that leaves its residents bereft of words.” There’s insecurity and the prices are skyrocketing while local banks are locked out of the national system. The Continent, page 13.

The cover art on this week’s edition of @thecontinent.org?? 🔥 😍

With depth and academic rigour, Koyo Kouoh told the stories of our diverse, magnificent and culturally rich continent to the world. Whether it was through the art institutions she taught at or the events she curated, Africa was the centre.

We Built This City is a limited series of photo essays by The Continent on African cities. This week, we are in Algiers with Fethi Sahraoui.

It’s no wonder why we always turn to stories of rebels to fill our imaginations? Had the pleasure to illustrate Jannah for the new edition of Star Wars Women of the Galaxy.

Hopped on the #starterpacknoai trend. Also, I have never done a meet the artist illo - this will be it. #noaistarterpack #humanartist #procreate #procreateillustration

The Syrian Arabic word for a hamster is أبو جراب (abu jrab), where jrab refers to a pouch/saddlebag/tote. And abu often means “father of,” but can also function as a general honorific (like “mister”). So it’s not too big a stretch to say the Syrian Arabic word for a hamster means “Mister Saddlebags”

Things I drew (and liked) in our first season of The Continent this year. #editorialillustration

All Protocol Observed Welcome to The Museum of Stolen History. This season, we profiled eight historical artefacts from every corner of Africa. We call it The Museum of Stolen History, in recognition of the fact that much of Africa’s history has been looted or erased. Read it here: bit.ly/TCMoSH

All Protocol Observed Welcome to Issue 194 of The Continent Zambia’s pact with copper mines has decimated another river. Read it here: bit.ly/TheContinent...

Part 2 in @thecontinent.org's #MuseumOfStolenHistory series covers Tewodros' II, King of Kings of Abyssinia, gold crown - looted during the British Army’s 1868 siege of Maqdala.

The Museum of Stolen History: The Golden Crown, with its stunningly delicate filigree, belonged to Emperor Tewodros II, the King of Kings of Abyssinia. It was the most remarkable artefact looted during the British Army’s 1868 siege of Maqdala, the king’s hilltop fortress capital.

The Golden Crown is most famously associated with Emperor Tewodros II, but this artefact also had a previous life, existing for nearly a century before he seized it. (Illustration by Yemsrach Yetneberk)

Highly recommended new series in @thecontinent.org on looted #CulturalHeritage & #colonialism: "The Museum of Stolen History", curated by @shola-lawal.bsky.social, art direction by @wynonamutisi.bsky.social - Part 1 on #NgwiNdem from #Cameroon, pp. 19-22: www.thecontinent.org/_files/ugd/2...

All Protocol Observed Welcome to Issue 187 of The Continent African opposition figures usually boycott elections after disillusioning runs. Venâncio Mondlane believes his victory in Mozambique’s election was stolen. He's doing things differently and it's already paying off. bit.ly/Continent187

Following the death of my brother I’ve started writing an all-ages fantasy comic about grief to help process my own. Titled IT TOOK MY BROTHER, it follows a young boy on a mission to commune with his dead brother to find the monster that killed him, so he can get revenge. Includes a giant chicken 🐓
