This small doodle was done while I was in college. We were assigned to talk about issues pertaining to young adults I chose eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia. More specifically how its thrown in our faces on a daily basis through the media. We are expected to look a certain way in order to be considered beautiful in today's standards. Runway models are stick thin and glamorous. In the fashion business you are considered a plus sized model if you are 130lbs. Its my dream to be 130 lbs, I'd be content being a plus sized runway model if that were the case :P I read an article about a Chanel model, one quote she had was "I'd rather die than be fat." This was the inspiration for this doodle. This was simply done on white paper with black pen.
