The Illustration Friday topic this week is “similar”. It made me think of how people can tend to avoid others who are different from them.
“We’re Similar!” is inspired by memories of the way the social system at grade school worked when I was little (still does?), and how children who were different in some way or didn’t have clothes that were as nice as the others were ostracized.
Great interetation of the theme, Ellifolks, and very true. Sadly, still as true today.
a very thoughtful interpretation, and of course one im aware of when considering education for my girls ! may we exchane blog links?
Thank you, Elizabeth and Cat!
Cat, I sent you a FM.
Sad, isn’t it? I’d like to think that all those ostracized kids grew up to be like Bill Gates. This is a cool image. I like the little-girl-wallpaper in the background.
a very thought provoking picture, it is really sad this happens though. Thanks for your encouragement about creating my prints as cards, glad you like them
Beary Hugs, Catherine x
