Hi everybody.
Today I would like to continue with a small personal project that consist to make drawings of the 7 deadly sins with my personal style in Black and White
Its time to talk about avarice which is one of the 7 deadly sins. For me the avarice means someone that likes to be in possessions of incredible quantity of money and that person wants more and more money losing the control of this wish. Easily a avaricious persons can steal and break personal morality in order to receive more money.
At the first step I drew a skecth showing a person that has a lot of money in their wallet and that person is thinking to give a coin to someone else person that has nothing. Here I was thinking that rich people has a huge responsability, because this person with the richness that they have can support and change the world.
Here some detail of inking procces.
Meanwhile I was inking the drawing I felt that I should add some context, So I decided to add a Demographic drawing of Venezuela with some oil extractors. For those who dont know, I am a freelance illustrator based in Venezuela. This country has the world's largest oil reserves and incredible reserves of gold, silver and iron. this country should have been so rich but ended up this poor, it is happend because there just enriched the few and impoverished the many. In name of socialism the government have been enriched meanwhile the population become poor. Is something incredible what does the avarice.
I know that many Venezuelan citizens have been surviven in Venezuela posting on stemmit which is become a way to overcome the social crisis in the country. I have 4 month posting on steemit and was awesome the feedback. I think this social media is an incredible way to share my improvements, be support by all of you and also supported another new artists. I am grateful to all steem community that help me grow as an illustrator with upvote and comments. I hope to help anothers artist in the same way. I am sure that we are going to overcome this situation and become a better Venezuelan citizens after this crisis.
I would like to share to all of you a phrase of Albert Einstein that explain the concept of crisis. I repeat to all my friends this idea to encourage them.
“Do not pretend that things will change if we always do the same. The crisis is the best blessing that can happen to people and countries, because the crisis brings progress. Creativity is born from the distress, as the day is born from the dark night. It is in crisis that invention, discovery and large strategies are born.Who ever overcomes crisis, outdoes himself without being overcome. Who attributes their failures to the crisis and neglects, violent his own talent and gives most respect to the problems rather than solutions. The real crisis is the crisis of incompetence. The drawback of people and countries is laziness to find solutions to their problems. without crisis there are no challenges, without challenges life is a routine, a slow agony. without crisis there is no merit. It is in the crisis where the best of each other rise up, without crises any wind is caress. Talk of crisis is to promote it, and silent in the crisis is to exalt conformity. Instead of that, work hard. Get it over with the only crises threatening, that is the tragedy of not wanting to fight for it. ”
-Albert Einstein.
