I saw this, or a picture much like this at work. It struck me how fortunate it is to be in America, for most of us. This is the face of millions in the Communist world. A bowl of sustenance may seem meager, to us, but for many of those whom live in Communism, a bowl of sustenance means much, much more.

Carliss, you've done some really incredible stuff. I love your artwork!! This piece really stands out for me. I think it's the very expressive eyes and brows. Excellent use of the gel pens. Thanks for sharing your art, I'll be checking back for updates!! -Wyatt
