Confederate Flag Remix
The Confederate Flag Remix design began to develop after I decided to create flag graphics for the custom shower curtains I was selling on CafePress .  http://www.cafepress.com/customdesignstore/9193910 .  As an African American the “Stars and Bars” left a bad taste mostly for what it symbolized to me in the context of race relations in this country.  As an artist – the Confederate flag is a cool flag design and is already on a host of diverse products.

I decided I would play with the colors in Photoshop.  Will a viewer perceive the flag differently when the colors change? The first version was monochromatic shades of green – I was thinking recycling and the whole green movement. Using green in that design led me to use the colors of the black liberation flag – red black and green - in the second Remix version. I added yellow gold to the stars as a nod to the Jamaican Rasta flag.
