drawing of Dorothea Lange's 1936 photograph Magrant Mother
i feel so bad for this woman! she was a widow during the depression and had 3 small kids to take care of (she's also holding a baby, but i couldnt fit him in) this took a while because i did little bits at a time. its also one of the messiest drawings i've done! this is 4b charc with a little 2b + white charc + q-tips + kneaded gum eraser for the really light parts (her face, hand, etc) and stump only for the cloth because i find that stumps can be streaky and give a rougher texture, which is what i wanted for the clothes. |

 reports, 1d 23h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.73 That Zen Feeling$chix0r

I'm not really qualified to comment in depth on non photographic stuff, but wow, very nice piece. The brown and black tones give it great visual depth. :-D I give it a zillion stars and a A+
