Solace
by
Ramona Davoudpour
This
image, originally a photograph in the National Geographic, depicts a girl's
face bordered by her father's hand holding her baby sibling. The
father's calloused hands portray the difficulties and weight of life on the
girl's shoulders. However, despite these hardships, there is a sense
of security in her expression that she gains from the intimate relationship
with her family. I chose watercolor to create the feel of tranquility
and solace, while the India ink creates dark sharp lines to symbolize the
hardships in this culture/life.
