Job hunting in a hostile environment. ✨

A three panel comic done in mostly a blue-purple ink. Frame 1: The artist, a tired person with their hair in a bun and a bag on their shoulder standing in the awning of a bus shelter. There's an ad on it that says "STOP HIRING HUMANS", above a woman whose face has been replace with the word "AI".
Frame 2: The bus comes, it's wrapped in an ad that also says "STOP HIRING HUMANS." The artist has a blank look.
Frame 3: A plane has now arrived above the bus and the human. It's carrying an ad banner that also says "STOP HIRING HUMANS".

For #earthweek, the 3rd prompt is “wind blowing “. A few weeks ago, I witnessed a showering of helicopter seeds from a nearby maple tree that felt so magical that it became my inspiration for this illustration! #kidlitart #editorialillustration

A worm’s eye view illustration of a large maple tree dropping its seed pods while the pappus from the dandelions are carried by the winds to other destinations. In the sky, a bird flies towards the tree.
