"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."
I did this one to look like a silk-screened poster. It could also be a book cover. This is Napoleon from George Orwell's Animal Farm.
Animal Farm is a novella by George Orwell, and is perhaps the most famous satirical allegory of Soviet totalitarianism. Published in 1945, the book reflects events leading up to and during the Stalin era. Orwell, a democratic socialist, and a member of the Independent Labour Party for many years, was a critic of Stalin, and was suspicious of Moscow-directed Stalinism after his experiences with the NKVD during the Spanish Civil War. The plot is an allegory in which animals play the roles of the Bolshevik revolutionaries and overthrow and oust the human owners of the farm, setting it up as a commune in which, at first, all animals are equal, but soon disparities start to emerge between the different species or classes. The novel describes how a society's ideologies can be changed and manipulated by individuals in positions of power.
Originated from Mexico near the city of Pueblo, these mild, heart-shaped chiles is just one of those peppers with huge interiors perfect for stuffing delicious fillings (also known as picadillos). Some are filled with black beans, fresh steamed white corn kernels, cheese, garlic, onions, and many more...The poblano holds up well under grilling which enhances its velvety rich taste. Young poblanos such as Pepe, have dark green skin and mature to red or brown. Dried Poblanos are called Mulatos or Anchos and they are awesome ingredients for soup or sauces.

ill go for a snowball/che reference in this case.
i guess i could draw other similarities to more current developments, but for the sake of not wasting my time on the obvious i wont. mike, another great piece.
Sweet! I have always loved that book. You did a great job on this illustration.... showing a darker side. I like the darker side (if you couldn't already tell.)
it could be ANYTHING marketable... you really captured him and that feel. love the little gritty pieces here and there, baker. like old school heroic posters.
bam!
I love that book and not only because in my life as a child I've lived in a political regime very similar to Stalin's. I understand it very well and I must agree with the others: you captured it's atmosphere perfectly.
Really reminds me of an old propaganda poster. Excellent use of color and I like the grainy feel to it.
Love that book! Great illo, Mike...
