[Art] Dear Little Brother

I toyed with the idea of calling it 'deer little brother,' but I thought that would be lame. So I didn't...

Dear Little Brother

Based on the fairytale, 'Little Brother & Little Sister,' told by the Grimm brothers.

The sister holds her brother, wounded in the hunt. She looks out onto the world, defiant but also resigned to a cruel fate; dependent on the bounty of the the wild to survive, and the mercy of others.









Detail of the roe deer. There are like four bazillion colours in that head.

Yeah I'm thinking red apples. And maybe a whole lot of dirt and rags, considering she's a slave for those little damn pipsqueaks.
