Old Woman Consuming Boiled Human Fetus
Medium: Pencils & conte on paper
A drawing inspired by the Scholastic Childrens story ‘Teeny Tiny And the Witch Woman’; from an old Turkish tale. When a graphic example of some of the classic stories are generated, one must realize just what it means to “cook and eat small children”. I did not make this up, but merely visualized the premise to the folklore.
This story is fantastic and is frightening. It has endured many centuries right through today. The lore makes a point for children to be distrustful of strangers, something that was lost up until recent years when it was finally “re-realized” that people are inherently bad and are prone to victimizing children. The Scholastic videos are all still available online.
