Jeffrey Bowman

 

  "I wanted to create something colorful and striking to communicate the idea that you can still lead a life the same as the next person. I took inspiration from tribal patterns in African culture but tried to bring a more youthful and pop colour palette into the mix.  ." 

Kris Miklos

 

"I wanted to show visually someone looking beyond the surface, someone with not only open eyes but with an open mind.."

 

Chris Dickason

 

"I wanted my illustration to capture the positive impact that a strong support network can have on solving some of the issues created by HIV & AIDS whilst emphasising the importance of community and the relationships created by the connectivity of a community. I used a much more fun naïve style than I usually adopt to keep the characters non specific and inclusive of all genders, age or race."
