i LOVE this one. it's from a picture i got off google of a child from Darfur. originally my concentration was going to be the children of Darfur, but i decided not to. i spent so much time on this one i knew i'd never get an assignment in on time if i chose that concentration. his eyes are so haunting for such a young baby. its heartbreaking
done in charcoal.
Edit: Thank you so much for all the faves! I'm really glad everyone is enjoying the piece so much! I don't think I could thank everyone individually so here's a huge thank you from me to you for giving this little guy some love
This is SO beautiful! You caught his little expression perfectly.

Daily 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.
