Now courtesy of my dad I have these little #Alabama-shaped wood magnets. Need to think of good ideas for what to paint on them. Anyone have any nifty suggestions or requests?

1.5 years ago I opened a shop, gallery & studio in my Red state that would celebrate, cater to and mainly offer the work of left-leaning LGBT+, disabled, POC, etc artists, slowly-less-quietly resisting while superficially being another cute tourist shop selling work by local artists.
I didn't expect to make big money, but hoped to do just enough better than breaking even to keep it from actually costing me $$ to support & promote marginalized artists & have my own lil studio. Helpfully,

The shop will be closed today because I can't see. 🙈

I was really just practicing my lines and crosshatching, but it’s almost as if I had something on my mind while doing so. You can see it get better from the top, to the right, to the left side. 😅

Work in progress. You can see my crosshatching get better as I go clockwise around the page 😅
Image is a white sketchbook page, with a big scroll drawn in black ink, and lots of crosshatching I did in brown in around it for practice. The page reads,
“THE FIRST AMENDMENT
IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE SECOND!
NO FASCIST USA.” And I have drawn the words “The First Amendment” in pseudo-calligraphy.

Because I NEED to replace my falling-apart car… I am feverishly adding more products.

*please note that shipping on this one will be delayed because it still needs to come from the printers.
