Vote Like a Motherf*cker

leave a comment »

We must VOTE.
My original “Vote Like a Motherfucker” papercut illustration was inspired by the words of Cheryl Strayed. If you have read her book Tiny Beautiful Things, you will recognize the phrase “write like a motherfucker.” In the 2016 election, Cheryl adapted that to be “vote like a motherfucker.” I asked Cheryl if I could turn her words into artwork in lead up to the 2020 election. 

This year we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th amendment. During the fight for the 19th amendment, suffragettes wore yellow roses to indicate their support. This yellow rose is a nod to the women who came before us and ensured that today we have the right to vote.

I turned this artwork into a “voter pack,” intended to remind you to vote, but also to take that reminder to someone else. Because we ALL need to show up and vote. You can wear your button and sticker proudly, and give the other button and sticker to a friend. Pass the voting energy on.
Postcards are 4.5×6.25″ and can also be hung as a small print on your wall/fridge/in the window so your neighbors see it. The pack includes a yellow, white, and black postcard. Snag one here. I am personally donating $5 of each pack to Fair Fight
