It wouldn’t be nearly as neat without a back, would it? So have some more Badge Art! I also have to show off all the treasure I drew that I then decided to hide behind text.
I’m going to be so thrilled to see people wearing these at @anthroweekendutah.org I can’t wait!

And now I get to share it! The front design of the attendee badges this year for @anthroweekendutah.org!
Because I have to go 110% I did different times of day for each tier. The Gold/Silver/Bronze will also be done up in shiny foil. I guarantee they look so rad in person!
