Let's be real: this is a Corita Kent fan account. We unabashedly love her incredible protest art.

Which brings us to the question we're itching to ask you:

Who are your favorite protest artists? What is the activist art that fires up your heart and who are the artists behind it? (Any time period, anywhere in the world.)

We want to hear about the activist art in your heart!

The Mysterious Monster March: THE CONVERSATION

Illustration from a children's picture book that I am working on.


"After Meenu gobbles the crisp tartlets that

are offered, he asks "Where is everyone going?"

"I'm not sure" growls one, scratching its neck.

"It is a BIG mystery!", another whispers, smiling

nervously. One teeny monster mumbles

"I'm just following the others."
