ripple (sold)
this is for a special illustration friday topic.
here’s the gist of it:
“It’s hard to make ripples in oil soaked water. But throw enough stones and you will!
It’s not about the politics or the corporation. It’s about the animals. It’s about not feeling helpless in the face of an overwhelming disaster. We’re illustrators. We don’t lose touch with that kid inside who marvels at the creatures who swim below and fly above the sea. We draw them. We are inspired by them. We need to help them.
The Ripple blog was started on the 45th day of the Deepwater Horizon Catastrophe. The oil spill in the Gulf is now over 50 days old with no sign of stopping. We may be too small as individuals to do some grand gesture- but together our small gestures can be grand.”
there’s more on the blog.
Great card! Congratulations on it selling so quickly. Every little bit helps.
