The land of nod has gotten nearly as hostile as the waking world lately. Colored pencil with digital text and speech balloon.
Christmas 1989, the Ceaușescus recieved their earned reward of 60 bullets each for the horrors that they ordered committed and for enriching themselves while their nation suffered and starved. I have been trying to figure out how to depict this moment Here is one of the sketches from the process.
