Description When will Equality become a reality for all?

Graphite pencil on regular A4 printing paper, after a reference picture called JUSTICIA made by DA artist Ron Vargas. [link]

I was struck not only by this great catch, but even more by the comment Ron wrote to this work. I quote:

"I do not believe in pity. Neither do I believe in charity.
I prefer to believe in justice.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights says: "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood".

Of these rights, perhaps the most overlooked is the right to equal opportunities.

In my country, as in other countries of the world, poverty is the consecquence of this oversight. We owe these children education, health, better living conditions, not out of charity, nor out of pity, but out of justice."

Hi there TobyJo and thank you!
Just ook a stroll through your gallery and you have quite some interesting stuff there as well!
However, if I may advise you....your works look very greyish, probably due to the camera/loss of quality.
Maybe you wanna try this:

Download the freeware program Photoscape and use this to upgrade the quality of your pictures. You can cut them to the right size and bring back the contrast and depth in your drawings very easily. I am not a computerpro but even I can do it with this program
give it a try and upload your works again, I am sure you will get much more response

I am 63 yrs old........all my life, I have watched as people become more and more greedy
I am so sorry but I do not have too much 'faith' in mankind.

However keep being POSITIVE

We all see the greed and the results of it...this taught me to choose not to be part of that. Change comes from within and the more people see the greed in others and reject it in themselves, the larger and stronger our group will become...it is just a matter of time...or evolution...
When the day comes that I "go back to where I came from" and I will have my "chat" about how things went in my life, it is no use to tell them "but he did this and the other guy did that"...they will just say "we will talk about the others when they are here again, now it is about you that we will talk..."
God Bless you Jenny
