Flowers for Sale


While watching a documentary (I tend to watch a lot of them...) about the London Blitz, I was struck with a very short black-and-white clip of a flower seller continuing to do his work on the streets while WWII happened around him. It was simple and hopeful; I took the idea and ran with it for a illustration. (Keep scrolling for a look at the original scene.)

Pencil + watercolor + gouache.

In the earbuds: "The Lark Ascending" by Ralph Vaughan Williams.
