Open Door Premium Poster
Open Door is a design very close to my heart as it features not only my illustration but also a poem of mine about hope and togetherness.
I am an immigrant. I was lucky enough to become an immigrant by choice, not chased away from my home by war or poverty. And I am lucky enough to be white and to speak English with only a slight accent. My nationality invites smiles and positive, romantic stereotypes. So many immigrants are far less lucky. Still, someone once shouted at me, in a public space, while I was carrying my baby in a sling on my chest, to "go back where you come from!" Let me tell you, it's a brutal experience, even when it is rare.
We need to do better as a society, and that's what I'm hoping this piece inspires.
(I didn't expect to get that deep in this description but I guess, sometimes, things need to be said the way they are.)

Fair to your wallet, fair to the planet
Every product I sell is printed on demand because it's better for the planet by saving wastage, plus I don't have a warehouse in my back garden!
As for the prices, I keep them as fair as possible: they are set to cover the costs running a business involves such as the fees related to taking card payments... and to allow me to attempt to make a living out of this art thing!
Oh, and did I mention postage is FREEEEEEEE?
