More than his inventions and initiatives, Tesla and SpaceX CEO is also widely known for his tweets. From cryptic messages to jokes to important information, Musk has tweeted about almost everything. To make sure those tweets stay in our memories forever, an artist has turned Elon Musk's tweets into illustration and has compiled those illustrations into a colouring book. Also read| SpaceX's envisioned machinery will not only take us to Mars, but reduce travel time on Earth tremendously! A Colorado-based artist Salina Gomez, aka Ill Ink, has released a colouring book titled The Illuminated Tweets of Elon Musk. View this post on Instagram This is the fun stage, where I get to color some of my favorite pages. I’m a little bit wild and unsophisticated with color. I did study color in college, and I did quite well in the course, but you’d never know it looking at how I colorize things. Seems I’m unable to escape the carnival in my head, which is my default color palette. I should probably do a series of illustrations with “mature” color, just to show that I actually can. If I can ever get the six year old in me to stop running the show for a minute. 🍭🎨🎪🧸 #coloringbook #colouringbook #coloring #coloringpages #colouringpages #elonmusk #yusakumaezawa #dearmoon #masks A post shared by Ill Ink (Salina Gomez) (@ill_ink) on Jun 14, 2020 at 9:30am PDT × The 52-page book has Elon's tweets from July 2016 to May 2020, which are arranged in a chronological order. This, Salina feels, will help the audience understand the changes in Musk’s vision and development. “Musk’s Twitter feed, once I had found it, brought me a lot of joy,” Gomez wrote on her Kickstarter page. “I decided to take on the role of a gonzo editorial cartoonist reading the Musk Twitter Headlines, subjectively interpreting them in a whimsical, positive manner, all the while immersing myself in the Twitterverse experience.” View this post on Instagram Looking back on the beginning of the coloring book project years ago. The Raptor’s first firing was one of the first pages I drew (and colored). This was when the tweets were still on the front of the page. Today @SpaceX will be launching two astronauts to the ISS in the Crew Dragon Demo-2 mission. This is the flight that will determine the Crew’s readiness to transport humans around the solar system. The Raptor engines are pushing this all forward. This is so exciting. One of these days I need to get to a launch to feel it in person. ⚡️🚀 #spacex #crewdragon #elonmusk #interplanetary #coloringbook #colouringbook A post shared by Ill Ink (Salina Gomez) (@ill_ink) on May 27, 2020 at 8:56am PDT × Wanting to keep it light hearted, she said most editorial illustrators focus on serious societal or political issues. However, she wanted to portray Elon Musk's genius ideas in a fun and creative manner, while setting her work apart from the usual work. “I wanted (and needed) to counterbalance the world’s problems with positive and hopeful content. Not only was Elon Musk the perfect person to focus the project’s energy on, I wouldn’t have even come up with the project if it weren’t for him. Musk is a once in a lifetime entrepreneur, engineer and visionary… and I think it is right to say that this book is a byproduct of his profound determination to dream big,” she added. View this post on Instagram Funding secured in just 43 hours. I had no idea this would happen. I was terrified it wouldn’t even get that much in 30 days. You guys I’m so stoked! I’ll be updating Kickstarter here in a second. I literally just pulled up to my studio from a night at work. What a blessing. 🤪💕✨ I’ll be adding a stretch goal to the campaign PLUS a crazy special reward level that will only have room for 3 backers, no extensions on backers on this one. Hold tight and be ready to hit the buy button... 🎯 A post shared by Ill Ink (Salina Gomez) (@ill_ink) on Jun 17, 2020 at 6:57am PDT × In order to fund her project, she has started a kickstarter page online which has helped her gain popularity and funds. Overwhelmed and thankful for all the support that she has received, she has promised to deliver the final project to the people who have backed the project and pledged to buy the book till Christmas. She will be sending out 200 signed copied from October, each costing $30 (Rs 2284).
