Artist's Comments

Her mother is doing her chanting and prayers, walking around the Hong Yuan monastery with a large group of people after a funeral. She is all wrapped up on her mothers back, sort of along for the ride but the look on her sun parched face is as if she understands the gravity of what’s going on.

Poor thing. I guess if the people you are in close contact with all day long are sad it'll eventually make you feel the same way, even if you do not quite grasp what's going on.

Anyway, it's a wonderfully expressiv portrait - even if seeing such a worn-out expression on such a young face is disturbing.

this comment surprised me a bit, I guess poor thing isnt something going through my mind when I look at this, but her look is a little disturbing a yet at the same time makes you think a little about whats behind it
:iconaque:
She has surprisingly adult look.
Great photo.

She looks like she's either overwhlemed by all that's around her or that she's really excited. Your photos always tell really strange stories and I really enjoy it. Keep it up :)
