Artist's Comments

Apologies in advance to those of you who don't know/don't appreciate the French Revolution. This is Saint-Just (the hot one) and Robespierre (the half-dead one) at some point between Robespierre's jaw getting blown off and their being guillotined the next day. Poor Robespierre looks so icky...! Sorry the scan came out a bit dubious on this one...wrinkly-looking...

What an incredible image. You seamlessly convey the mood and agony of these two through your great attention to positioning and minute detail. Very, very nice.

“Rather than asking ‘Who am I?’ we
might ask, ‘In how many ways can I be myself?’ Rather
than asking ‘What is my place in the world?’ the
question might be better put, ‘In how many ways can I
experience a sense of belonging to the world?’”

As already said before: vive la revolution!

Poor Robespierre! The expression in Saint Just's face is moving, and poor, poor Robespierre. I love the folds in Robespierre's coat; there's just a nice crispness that's very pleasing.

wow, you shade so nicely :yum: the color of the paper gives it an awesome feel, and Saint Just's face is gorgeous
