He/Him - Why did you create this work?
The portraits were commissioned by Politico before the US Election Day to illustrate the possible outcome of the election (Trump as a winner, Trump as a loser, Trump and Kamala together in case the Election Day did not bring the final result etc.). The images did not have to be exactly the same in terms of style or color palette as they were not meant to be published together. - How were your illustrations used?
Even though there were several illustrations created (as no-one could predict what the result of the election would be), in the end, Politico published two of them – the image of Trump as a winner (right after he won the election) and also the double portrait of Kamala and Trump (a few days later, for an article that summed up the election). - What materials and techniques did you use?
All the portraits were hand drawn digitally. - Was this project commissioned?
