We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create.” ~John Lennon

Illustration for a wedding project but I love it so much that I had to share it! Probably one of my favourites.

Commission from a while back based on the cover of “Swimming” - fifth and last studio album by American rapper and singer Mac Miller.

On the 25th of April 1974, a militar coup swept away the dictatorship in Portugal.

The coup had two secret signals. The first was the airing at 10:55 p.m. on 24 April of Paulo de Carvalho's "E Depois do Adeus" (Portugal's entry in the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest) which alerted the rebel captains and soldiers to begin the coup. The second signal came at 12:20 a.m. on 25 April, when Rádio Renascença broadcast "Grândola, Vila Morena" (a song by Zeca Afonso, an influential political folk musician and singer who was banned from Portuguese radio at the time).
