Also the lyrics are a whole lot of fun.

Lately I have been seeing lots of ads* for those “Trans Rights are Human Rights” t-shirts with wildflower designs. Lovely… but they are invariably popping up from disreputable companies who no doubt have stolen the art or are imitating the original idea.

I did some research into who did this original design and came up with one possible person: Rae Senarighi, AKA Transpainter (https://transpainter.com/about-rae-senarighi-fine-art/), who has painted a lot of beautiful wildflower designs with slogans on - but none with precisely the same image I see everywhere.

My question is: is the design I am seeing copied from a different artist or is there just a proliferation of wildflower/trans right art which has been inspired by Transpainter?

Thanks for your help! And to celebrate Pride month, if you get yourself an LGBTQIA+ t-shirt, please make sure the original artist is getting your money, not some tech billionaire.

*Clearly I did not see these ads on Tumblr. That would actually be relevant for me. Here it’s all oat kefir and Christianity

And here are a couple of Rae Senaghari originals on Etsy. They have MANY more - go check them out! https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Transpainter:

Looked it up. Sounds porny to me:
