‘Race and racism is a reality that so many of us grow up learning to just deal with. But if we ever hope to move past it, it can’t just be on people of color to deal with it. It’s up to all of us – Black, white, everyone – no matter how well-meaning we think we might be, to do the honest, uncomfortable work of rooting it out. It starts with self-examination and listening to those whose lives are different from our own. It ends with justice, compassion, and empathy that manifests in our lives and on our streets.’ — Michelle Obama

Digital Warmup with Dexter’s Laboratory cause he’d be in his mid 20’s by now and I’d totally watch it. Peace ya’ll. #Marcusthevisual #digitalsketching #dexterslaboratory #cartoonnetwork

Digital warmup with more from Dexter’s Laboratory (adult years). I like to think that Mandark’s mid 20’s would be a dark spiral into all things destructive after suffering so much defeat from Dexter over the years. Like any mad scientist, the target for his work would turn it’s focus inward in an attempt to force self improvement to get the results he’s after. Seeing as how Dee Dee has grown into a bombshell, he would of course still be enamored over her, but possibly has accepted the harsh reality that like his battles with Dexter, it’s a losing battle he’ll never win. Being the evil genius that he is however, he’s not above creating his own version of her, a near flawless android that of course has none of the traits that Dee Dee has, which causes him daily frustration. Also Duck is still around :) Peace ya’ll. #Marcusthevisual #dexterslaboratory #digitalsketching #cartoonnetwork

Warmup for the day with more Dexter’s Laboratory (adult years) with Dex’s parents. Yes, 20 years later they look virtually the exact same. C'mon now, did you really think a “boy genius” capable of time travel and giving his pet monkey super powers would allow his parents to become old and decrepit? Not hardly. Unbeknownst to his parents, Dexter devised an anti-aging formula in his late teens that would guarantee long life for them. Oddly enough, his parents just assume their good looks and great physique in there golden years were the byproduct of a healthy lifestyle and choice eating. Peace ya’ll. #Marcusthevisual #dexterslaboratory #digitalsketching #cartoonnetwork
