Great Recession continues. And, every one of us know at least a few close people in our lives who have lost their jobs because of this current economic situation.
This illustration was done for March issue of
MORE, a magazine for grown up women with career and family, about this exact topic.
The story is titled: '
Fired at 50'. It focuses on the emotional struggle of women who have lost their long term jobs. It felt so 'real' to me.
March happens to be a transitional month when winter slowly turns into spring. So I decided to use season as metapher of women's emotional struggle.
Claudia Almeida was the Art director.
This has been a long cold winter with a lot of snow for North-Easterners, but we all know spring is right around the corner!
