I recently completed a commission for an illustration of a little indigenous boy performing as a grass dancer. The client advised me on what details to include to make him look authentic, since she is indigenous and I am not. She wanted it to match that illustration I made a few years ago of a girl in a jingle dress.
I wasn’t sure if I’d get to it this week, but I did. Here’s an illustration drawn just for this week’s prompt. I hope you like it.
Here’s an old photograph of mine for stripes. This was taken just before they tore down the old barbershop in my hometown. I used real black and white film and printed it myself in a darkroom. It’s pretty old and has picked up some scratches and things. So, sorry about it’s condition.
I may put up an actual drawn-for-this-prompt illustration later this week. I just wanted to give you all something in case I didn’t get around to drawing something new for you. 🙂
