Another picture for that contest I was telling you all about. I dunno if I'm gonna upload the third one, because it's not half as good as the first two, but we'll see what happens.

I think this image reflects at least one person you know, right?

Yes, it's highly stylized. Yes, I realize that if a human being's skeleton was EVER shaped like that, no one would ever be able to function, but the style is the point. I just want to make that known to those of you who don't enjoy stylized works. <3~

P.S. Yes....he's a dude...

The best about this drawing, is the story of millions of women that are tucked into it.

I love this :love:

You've gotten the point through quite well with this picture. It's such a sad truth that some people likely do see this, and some of the time they can't break free of that trap.

I love the way you've drawn the anorexic one and her reflection.

Thank you so much. I feel it's such a strong, visual piece as well. However, I want to make it stronger. I hope to redo it later on. Not yet, but later.

:hug: thanks again :D I really, really appreciate the input :glomp:

It really is strong, in my opinion. And the cartoonish (in my eyes) look seems to be mocking the way some people think it's not possible for the problem to be real, that some people think it's just trying to get attention.

I think your interpretation is pretty neat! It reminds me of what Art Spiegelman did with Maus. He turned the Holocaust story into a cartoon-comic with animals. The intensity of the meaning is just as powerful. :)

I agree, it would be. As long as the message is strong, the way it's shown will be as strong. :nod:
