Helping a tech giant celebrate a monumental initiative with a satirical illustration.

As ~150 employees within the company take on the monumental task of rewriting Twitter’s API, they wanted to celebrate year 1 of this project with a custom piece of artwork.

This illustration served the multi-purpose of celebrating the first year of the project, highlighting the wild year that was 2020 and hinting at the brand’s connectivity to the world. This design was ultimately produced as prints, shirts, and other swag.

Aside from initial thumbnail concepting, the majority of this piece was illustrated in Procreate on the iPad.
