Description
Also an illustration for my Children-book. The story behind that picture happend to me when I was a little boy: in that time I was on my way to school and I saw this old man selling his poems. It was just such a poor man that I wanted to buy one of his selfmade Magazins. But I had no money so I didn't buy one. Even as the man said to me that I don't have to pay (He just wanted that the people read his work). So I kept going on. Years later I saw in the lokal television that a Publisher made a Book with the poems of the old man. The Publisher started a Search for the Man but he never was found. Funny how Things go. I hope you understood the story even when my english is not as perfect as I wanted it to be. :-)

You have a really clean style, which I like a lot. Clean yet detailed. I also like what you did with the black shape in the background.

That's a lovely story, and I love the way you've put the old man on a background of stars so he's not quite of this world :). Very nicely rendered too.
