BBB: Biden Be Better
This editorial cartoon was created for an opinion article that reviewed the first 11 months of the Biden presidency.
In order to represent important aspects/events of Biden's presidency, such as the infrastructure bill, Afghanistan, and COVID-19 response, I stacked them on an exhausted donkey's back, creating a huge "weight" on the Democratic Party's shoulders. This way, the graphic not only included the main pros and cons that were mentioned in the article, but also revealed the difficulty the adminstration had in achieving Biden's lofty campaign promises.

Since it is easy to become to politicized when creating a graphic for this type of article, I also tried to shine a positive light on the situation. The sun and clouds in the background and Biden's persistence in moving forward create a hopeful atmosphere.
