In December, I started a sketchbook project called “See Our Faces”. I am drawing portraits of girls and women based off of National Geographic photos. Here are the first four of my drawings in this series.
The erasure of women has happened continuously throughout history. Women work, invent, support, and create behind the scenes, and no one knows their names or recognizes their faces. This small project is a way to begin to see the diverse range of women and girls from around the world, as a representation of just a few of the millions of women who remain invisible.
