To honor the collective, creative spirit of the LGBTQIA+ community year round and around the world, we asked artists from our I Weigh community to submit an original art piece that represents their pride, in support of an LGBTQIA+ organization near and dear to their heart.

With these art pieces, we’ve created some custom phone wallpapers for you to download and enjoy! 

Scroll down to check out their art, download the wallpaper, read a little about each artist, and learn about the organization they’re supporting. And of course, please consider donating if you can! 

Happy Pride 24/7, 365!

Their colorful illustrations feature portraits of heads that display distinct elements of Latinx and Peruvian culture and influence, including skulls, earlobe expanders, and floral motives amongst others. Through bold color palettes and text, their work is meant to make a statement.

In Support Of

The LGBTQ Freedom Fund

Queer people are three times more likely to be incarcerated than straight people. In front of the law, not everyone is equal. Some of us don’t have a family to bail us out or people to look out for us. This is why I am proud to stand in solidarity with the LGBTQ Freedom Fund. This organization posts bail for LGBTQ+ individuals held in prisons and immigration centers. Please show your support and donate to the cause in any way you can.

About the Artist

Frances Cannon is a queer, multidisciplinary artist based in Melbourne/Narrm. She works predominantly in drawing and painting in ink, gouache and watercolour. Frances is well known for her simple yet nuanced style of black and white illustration. Her work examines ideas of body-love and body-loathing, anxiety, relationships, sex and sexuality, gender, and bodily functions, and can be viewed as diaristic as it is based on personal experience. 

In Support Of

Black Rainbow

Black Rainbow is an Australian organisation that supports and cares for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTQIA+ people. The work that Black Rainbow does is especially important, as not only do queer people face a lot of bias and stigma, First Nations peoples face horrendous racism at the hands of white Australia and the Australian government. Black Rainbow is 100% Indigenous owned and operated, and they aim to improve the health and lifestyles of queer Indigenous folk. As a white queer person, I understand how vital it is to support and lift up the voices of BIPOC queer folk, which is why I think it’s important for everyone to know about the incredible work of Black Rainbow.

About the Artist

Louisa Foley is an illustrator based in Leeds, whose project, Are We Nearly Bare yet, “aims to subvert the male gaze and reclaim ownership of the ‘Nude’ for self identifying women.”

Through her colorful and sometimes provocative artwork, Louisa showcases the diversity, beauty, and even humour of the nude form, in order to dispel what might be typical judgements, and instead liberate women and non binary people.

In Support Of

Mind Out

It’s an LGBTQ+ mental health charity run by LGBTQ+ people. This charity is important to me for more than one reason. Our government is currently failing to support and protect LGBTQ+ people, making this charity a crucial source to many.  Being a queer woman who has needed to seek therapy, this charity feels particularly close to my heart. To have therapists tailored to work with sexuality and identity is so important. I’ve experienced uncomfortable therapy sessions in which therapists haven’t used correct terminology and have undermined my sexuality, making the whole experience uncomfortable and exacerbating the problems I have been struggling with.

When you are queer and have mental health issues, it can feel like discrimination is coming at you from every angle. These LGBTQ+ services are crucial to give people an even footing in life, and this is why I want to talk about MIND OUT.
