Hey ya'll!! I've been working on this Pride piece all month, and it's finally DONE! I'm so proud of it, I worked extremely hard to make it turn out as good as I could possibly make it. To warrant that level of perfectionism, from the start I intended this to be my very first desktop wallpaper EVER! I'm using version 2 as my wallpaper right now, never used my own art for that before, it's an amazing feeling!

I even added side bars for icons, so the image isn't obscured!! That's always been a little pet peeve of mine for past wallpapers I've used, so it feels great to incorporate that into the design of this ^^
I hope you all like it as much as I had fun making it. It really feels nice to draw something like this, because I've had a lot of struggle over the years with my own identity. Despite recent events, I feel better than ever about my self-expression now than I ever have before! I wanted to do a big pride thing last year, because last year marked a momentous change in myself and how I interface with the world. Unfortunately, that piece got delayed till September. So consider this my first ever pride piece actually done during pride month!
Speaking of the last pride piece, if you don't remember it, here it is:

Featuring the same characters too! I've not named these two yet, but they're besties and have lots of fun together! I'm thinking about naming the blue girl June, but I don't know what to name the pink boy. Let me know if you have any suggestions!
In the meantime, I hope you've all had a happy Pride month!!! Get out there and be unashamedly yourselves!
XOXO
