Wassano-and-his-firewood.jpg

Wassano was born deaf and mute, he was at the local church as an orphan for most of his life; he was relocated when the new administration came in. Now he makes a living hauling firewood for the town of Rosso. He is never short of food and shelter since the town grew with him.

Original photograph treated in CS2 and Painter 8.
I would love to hear your comments.

Another observation: The Survivor appears to be coming out of a swirling hole; another symbol of his tenancity and strength. Excellent portrait.

GMV! This is FANTASTIC! The story punctuates the already moving portrait of Survival! The swirling yellow-green all around the maze of wood overhead; that smile! Hope you frame this. I would.
