World’s Strongest Boys

by on August 8, 2016 with No Comments

I am very excited and honored to be working with the Duchenne UK organization and creating a new image for their 2017 Duchenne Dash. A charity ride from London to Paris in 24 Hours, on June 9th.

The inspiration for the art came from a wonderful video campaign titled “The World’s Strongest Boys”. You can see the video here: WORLDS STRONGEST BOYS VIDEO

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive muscle wasting disease that makes those living with it physically weak. But at Duchenne UK they believe that having to live with this reality makes these boys incredibly strong; it makes them the World’s Strongest Boys.

This drawing is the concept art for the digital art I will be creating over the next few weeks. Please take a moment to visit and learn more about this disease and help if you can. Or make the big commitment and ride the DUCHENNE DASH next June.
