#mta2023

Turning 26 so I thought I'd finally do a meet the artist ! Hi!

ID: Digital illustration following the annual art challenge called Meet the Artist, with some key info about me: my name and age, pride flags, social media handles, what I usually carry in my backpack, my pets and a drawing of me. On the top part, “Meet the Artist 2023 - Benjamin 19 birthday cake illustration 2003″ is written. Next to it there are four flags: one is the brazilian flag, followed by the trans pride flag, nonbinary pride flag and aromantic pride flag. Under the flags, there is a rainbow infinity symbol and a rainbow infinity symbol shaped like butterfly, the symbols of autism and ADHD respectively. Under it there are two columns. The first one has a golden star on top, my likes, and it is a list of three items in english and then in portuguese: rain, drawing, plushies. The second one, in the same format, but with a broken golden star on top, my dislikes: loud noises, mushy food and routine changes.  On the right corner is an illustration of me, sitting down with one arm resting on my thigh and the other holding up a peace sign. I smile at the viewer, my skin is white, I wear round black glasses and I have dark brown eyes. My hair is teal colored and short and curly slash wavy, both sides are shaved.  I’m wearing a white hoodie with a Spirited Away illustration on it of Chihiro, no-face and haku, its hood is light teal and front pocket is light pink. I wear black jeans with two golden chains to the side, and yellow all-star converse sneakers.  On the left side is an illustration of my backpack, which is black with yellow sewing and has two keychains, an elephant and a llama. Next to it are a few items I always carry with me: my yellow soundblocking headphones, yellow water bottle, a silver umbrella, a gray lunch bag with a green bento box and strawberry juice box inside, a totoro coin pouch, a blue notebook with a blue pen and yellow highlighter next to it, and a few stim toys: a mini pink penguin, a cube with green buttons to click, and a yellow fidget spinner.  Under me is three cat head silhouettes and four dog head silhouettes with pets written above it, their names and gender under each of them. In order: Pipoca, female, a calico cat, Amora, female, a black cat, Rato, male, a white cat with grey spots on his forehead, then under those: Luna, female, a black dog with white mouth, Lolita, female, a white dog with brown ears, Wolverine, male, a brown dog with black spots, Mel, female, a brown dog.
