Student Name: Danielle Donovan School: Oswego High School Grade: 11 Class/Club: AP Drawing with Mr. Skura & National Art Honors Society Title: Poverty UN Sustainable Development Goal: No Poverty Brief Artist Statement: I chose the topic of poverty because it is happening all around us and i feel as though many people turn a blind eye and pretend like it is not happening because they are not personally suffering. I decided to use an older subject because I feel like all their wrinkles, scars and imperfections really tell a story and show character which would elevate the piece. Then, I chose a quote I found by Mahatma Gandhi that I felt really portrayed the issue of poverty.
