Artist's Comments

Personally, I think those real portraits of people that can narrate all their entire life only looking at you, are the real beautiness looks. This child can speak with her eyes only with this tired look and the silence that show the environement and the elements.
I choosed to cut the rest of elements to focus all the attention on her face.

Drawing based on a picture by Steve McCurry from his great book about Portraits around the world.

Given 2005-07-21

Tired eyes by =impatation will give you shivers, and make you realize how quickly the innocence goes away... The depth in the contrast, and the care given to realism really make you want to hug this child and ease her pain. (Suggested by `kreestal and Featured by `twosilverstars)

Is that a baby foot or smth?I have a foot phobia:fear:
Anyway,I think you created a truly realistic piece.And yes,looks can tell a lot sometimes(unconsciously).And your drawing gets better and better every time you submit something new.:+fav:

This is amazing....truely...
The capture of those tired eyes...and those old hands holding the baby feet and that sad face...
And the way you have drawed it...that style...
It's great and very captivating...:heart:

Excellently done. You really managed to capture the whole story in her silently screaming gaze... Very moving and touching...

Perfeccionando cada vez mas el dibujo... vas muy bien Irene... muy realistas.

Irene... This kind of drawings of yours always let me like... :jawdrop:. What should I say more than what I've already told you since we met? You're a fucking genious. Your sense of life, of sensivity, of pain, is unique, and I've never met so much passion in art in anyone (and gosh knows how many 'artists' I've visited the galleries). I think your work should be known worldwide, and should be featured in art magazines! I would love to commission you one day, because you have so much talent.

What I especially love in this drawing is your incredible way to express emotions. All emotions. The fact you chose a child to express yourself really gives me shivers, because I can recognize myself, here, quite disappointed by the adult life and by the way the world goes... The depth of the volumes looks amazing, too.

Hay que perfeccionar en algo, es necesario mujer...

Intento abarcar todas las vertientes que puedo, captar emociones de fotos y unirlas a las mías propias es algo que siempre me llama la atención para dibujar, lo único que apenas tuve tiempo para esta pieza y tuve que hacerla en varias horitas nocturnas. :tired:
