Redesigning the American Flag

I am in Vis Comm 201 for my second studio class and our second assignment was to redesign the American flag. I honestly had no good ideas for it, but I was talking to my roommate about it and she goes "The right to bare arms! Get it? Like, bear arms? You could draw bear arms!" and it was silly and I laughed, but then I started thinking about it.

And this is what I got to...

It's a pun in several ways the "bear arms" and she in the original image she is literally baring her forearm. I like it because it's like a pun-y way to show how America is focused on guns and women having no control over a lot of things they should like their bodies and things like that and I dunno, I just like it.




I did it on my tablet and I actually like it. The font was weird and I chose the closest one I could find in Photoshop because I didn't want to try and piece together the font because that gives me a headache. I really like working with my tablet, I don't think I'm all too great at it, but it's still fun.
