The Awakeningby *shoomlah

Traditional Art / Drawings / People

A quickly drafted illustration of one of the more charged scenes from Kate Chopin's The Awakening- love is finally acknowledged. It's not necessarily my favourite piece in terms of the actual drawing, but it was backed by a very sincere emotional response to the novel and thus has its own sort of power and accuracy.

The Awakening is one of my favorite books I just read it about a week ago

This has more emotion than the book did. Excellent work.

simply adding to or repeating what those preceding commented, the sketchyness really adds emotion to such a simple image. i LOVE it.
