Artist's Comments

The Newsboys Strike of 1899 was a youth-led campaign to force change in the way that Joseph Pulitzer's and William Randolph Hearst's newspapers compensated their child labor force.

and our name is mud and the strike is on!



This is traditional media with layers and layers of photoshoped newspaper and photographs on top (I take no credit for the photographs/newspapers, I randomly found them over the interwebs, I wasn't alive in the 1900's sorry about that). So, well.

This is, at lack of a better word for it, a sketch - I plan on doing a much more elaborated thing whenever I get the time, since I get such a kick out of these XIX century themes and pseudo-classical triangular compositions; squint and you'll see lady liberty reincarnated in a newsboy! yes, right there, can't get anymore blatant.

Whoah this is new! Paper!
Está mesmo bonito. Bela ideia de usar os jornais realmente, liga-se tudo perfeitamente, principalmente na mão dele está muito fixe com o efeito da tinta

UAU! Parabéns novamente! Esse desenho realmente expressa os ânimos de revolução as cores e as poses dos garotoas fazem com que o observador perceba o tema de prontidão!!
Muito bacana!
Foi com giz de cera?

I like the atmosphere of this, and the sketchy texture. Can't wait to see a more detailed version.

obrigada! eu confesso que tenho uma certa preocupação em desenhar coisas que envolvam muita emoção, ando sempre com aquele medo de fazer as coisas parecer ridículas ou de diminuir o impacto que é suposto ter.
usei carvão vegetal, aguarelas e lá;pis de cera para alguns contornos : )
