My last couple of posts have talked about some pretty heavy issues. Time to lighten it up a bit. Here are three new sketches.
District Official

This guy is an official in one of the districts in this area. He's a pretty sharp guy and I hope that comes across in this sketch.
Poppy Farmer

A slightly different story with this one. He was growing poppy in one of the districts down here. That is, until the district chief of police and a horde of police and other officials hit the area. Now his poppy field is destroyed and he's under arrest. Not a good day.
Angry Poppy Farmer

This guy is another poppy farmer. Where the other one seemed resigned to his fate, this one wasn't. He's looking for somebody to kill. Well, if somebody just destroyed the crop that was going to fund you for the next year, you'd be mad, too.
It felt good to do some drawing again. I may have some more opportunities in the next couple of weeks, and I'm really looking forward to it!
For "Debbie of Boise" - Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment. I accidently hit the wrong button, though, and instead of posting it like I intended, I deleted it. My apologies!
ReplyDeletePoppies, like all recreational drugs are a demand side problem. Stop buying the stuff and it ceases to be both a political and a law enforcement problem.
