Fedora 38 Release Artwork
Our inspiration for Fedora 38 is:
**Samuel Massie**, who was a chemist who studied a variety of chemicals that contributed to the development of therapeutic drugs, including the chemistry of phenothiazine. As an African American scientist, it was hard for him to find work as easily as white colleagues and to avoid being drafted- worked on the Manhattan Project, which developed atomic bombs in World War II.
A recap of the Fedora 38 concept brainstorm session is here:

## How to Contribute
We are currently in the pre-release brainstorming process, so for this phase all artwork/brainstorm ideas/critiques/messy design fun should happen in the pre-release design ticket here:
**[https://gitlab.com/fedora/design/team/release-artwork/default-wallpaper/-/issues/5](https://gitlab.com/fedora/design/team/release-artwork/default-wallpaper/-/issues/5)**
If you would like to participate in this process, please note:
* Please post both a screenshot or bitmap export of your work AND the source file
* For example, post both a *.blend Blender file and a PNG render so we can see what you did
* Attachments work best in comments.
* Please try to attach and write up everything in one comment to make discussion easier, and respond to replies in your comment thread instead of opening a new comment.
