A Few Of The Designs From My Fundraiser. All Of The Ones I'm Sharing Today Adapt Older Art. From The

ALL PROCEEDS from Palestine related sales through my Redbubble shop will go to my Palestinian best friend to help him bring his girlfriend over to America. Any left over will be used to help his family/other loved ones affected by the war. He’s an incredible, kind, brilliant person and he deserves so much better than all the horrible things happening right now.

I filled in the flag with open source NASA photos. For sale here:

A simple red handprint design, found here. As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my Palestinian best friend, to help take care of his loved ones. He'll donate any his family doesn't need to the charities he works with.

Also this is not related to the shop, but my friend and I are both STEM grad students and our department is getting increasingly involved in Palestine activism. I'd like to encourage our fellow grad students to check out these examples of statements from grads at the Goldman School of Public Policy and the UCSC Astronomy Department and attempt something similar at your school. The military relies on STEM professionals to build their war machine; it's up to us to pressure our colleagues to avoid that sort of work.

Here is the above shown on a few products:

Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far!

Happy election day everyone, the date just made me realize I've been running this fundraiser for a little over a year now. Rather depressing, but I am very grateful for all the support you have given my best friend through this awful time.

I decided to make a new version of this text design for my fundraiser since I think the Arabic letters, being thinner and more stylized, were not standing out as much in green. Like the older one, this was mostly made as a sticker design. You can find it here. Here are demos of this and my two older interwoven English/Arabic designs on stickers:

EVERYTHING I EARN from my shop is for my best friend, a Palestinian grad student living in America. The money is sent home to support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries.

You can find all my work in my shop HERE. You can add filters by products (stickers, clothes, etc) on the left or go here to browse by design. Here is a sample of some of my other work:

There are over a hundred other designs in a wide variety of styles in my shop too, I hope you find something you like.

Also I'm not going to tell you all how to vote but I do hope all eligible Americans do plan on voting today even if you can't stomach voting for a mainstream candidate. A protest vote is a lot stronger statement than staying home, since something like 30-50% of the eligible population tends to not vote in this country anyway. Realistically not voting is likely to be analyzed as routine apathy rather than a statement. A third party vote shows you are a participating voter who can be courted in future elections. So whatever way you choose to vote please do it!

Thank you so much to everyone who has helped out! We really appreciate the support.

New Dove Design

I am absolutely in love with the Reem Kufi font (on the left), it's a beautiful blend of historical and modern design (though a little hard to read if you're still new to Arabic, haha). The Arabic characters were designed by Khaled Hosny if you want to check out the artist. I've used it for a bunch of simpler designs as well on my Redbubble recently.

As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from these designs are for my Palestinian best friend, to help his girlfriend afford to join him safely in America and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He is a brilliant scientist and the kindest man I have ever known, I hate seeing him suffer like this and want to help in whatever small way I can.

The designs above (and a bunch more) can be found here. Available on stickers, shirts, pins, notebooks, etc (click on each to see more product options).

Palestine - The Land of Sad Oranges

The Jaffa orange holds a lot of symbolism for the Palestinian struggle. This varietal was developed in Palestine in the 19th century and named for the city Jaffa, where it was first produced for export. It has strong skin and few seeds, making it excellent for commercial use, so it was a major product from the region until the industry declined under British rule and disruption from WWII. Finally the establishment of Israel caused irreparable damage as groves were seized or destroyed by settlers. Israel took over production on seized land but never achieved the same success with the crop, and what remained of Palestine suffered ongoing violence and blockades preventing the industry there from further success. The Jaffa orange has remained a symbol of the Palestinian homeland, most notably in Ghassan Khanafani's short story The Land of Sad Oranges.

This orange with a Palestinian flag for a leaf can be found here on shirts, stickers, mugs and more. ALL PROCEEDS from Palestine related sales will go to my Palestinian best friend to help him bring his girlfriend over to America and to help his other loved ones around the Levant who have been/are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. All designs available here.

Sorry I have neglected the fundraiser so much this week, my research has been kicking my ass. I have no idea how the friend I am fundraising for is managing grad school on top of his activism and supporting his family in the face of genocide, I'm struggling to keep up just helping him out. He's like an actual genius scientist though, he's amazing. I do have a couple new designs up now, here's one of them:

It can be found in my shop here on a bunch of different products. Some examples:

I made a second pixel art design for my fundraising shop, found here. It's a woman with a keffiyeh and a Palestinian dress featuring tatreez embroidery. It was made with stickers in mind but it is available on a lot of products. The original (below) is found here.

As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from my designs are for my Palestinian best friend, to help him support his girlfriend in remaining safely in America until things calm down and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.

All my designs can be found here (Redbubble will display them on a random product, click on each to see more product options such as shirts, stickers, pins, bags, etc). Edit: collections cap out at 100 products apparently, so from now on see my full range of designs here on my main page (I have temporarily removed all designs not related to Palestine).

Here are some examples of products with this design. Once I have a few more pixel art things I'll put some of them together in a sticker pack for people who want small versions (extra tiny stickers seem to me to suite this art style well).

Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far! We greatly appreciate it.

I'm glad this design was approved in time for today. It's the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. Candles have for obvious reasons been associated with this day in many traditions throughout history. They're also associated with mourning and vigil. As we celebrate our various winter traditions, let's remember the millions of people in Gaza now facing the darkest day of the year without light (or food, water and shelter). As you light your candles let them serve also as vigil for those we have lost and the horrors the living still face. Around the candle I placed poppies, olives and an orange, all symbols of Palestine, along with a scrap of paper with the Arabic name (فلسطين).

As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from this design are for my Palestinian best friend, to help his girlfriend afford to join him safely in America and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. The West Bank violence has been hitting his family particularly hard.

You can find this design here. All designs found here (Redbubble will show you a random product, click on each to see more product options). I try to make stuff in a wide variety of styles so there's something for everyone.

Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far.

One of you reached out to me and requested puzzles for some of my designs. At the time I added the one on the left since it was near a large enough resolution already. I just added a scaled up version of the design on the right as well, please forgive me for taking so long to get around to it. My newest design also has a puzzle:

As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from my designs are for my Palestinian best friend, to help him support his girlfriend in remaining safely in America until things calm down and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with (he's heavily involved in activism and I trust him to put the money where it will make the most difference).

I'm not really sure how a fundraiser like this should be considered under the strike, I'm going to keep sharing my stuff and leave it to your discretion when/if you want to purchase anything this week.

The designs above and many more can be found in my shop here. Each design is available on a lot of different products besides the default Redbubble shows you, click on each product or click on "explore designs" to see more options. I don't usually do puzzles since Redbubble demands super high resolution and is also really glitchy about fitting the images, but there's plenty of other things on there like shirts, stickers, notebooks, etc.

I will warn you that for the woman in keffiyeh print you may be able to tell that the scarf outline is digitally drawn and doesn't look exactly the same as the lines on the original print when viewed on a high resolution product like this. I think it still looks pretty good though.

Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far!

Another map design, found here.
