"Knupper, knupper, Kneischen,
Wer knuppert an meinem Häuschen?" Die Kinder antworteten: "Der Wind, der Wind, Das himmlische Kind". ("Hänsel und Gretel"der Brüder Grimm) It had been a while I had not drawn an illustration for a fairytale I like, so here it is! This drawing features Hänsel and Gretel. At first, I wanted to draw something cute... but then I remembered that the story was not so cute after all (in fact, all the fairytales are horrible if you read them carefuly.) and my little brother and sister ended up looking a little scary... ^_^; I'm not totally satisfied with this drawing though... I still need more practice when it comes to draw boys... =___=; and feet and hands as well... Well, as far as I am concerned, I think that Hänsel and Gretel are quite "scary", after all, Gretel, did not hesitate to push an old lady into a burning oven... O_o (ok, the lady was supposed to be a witch...) that remebered me about a story from "Ludwig Kakumei" (by Yuki Kaori), in the story of the "Little Red Ridding Hood", a character talks about the two young murderers "Hansel and Gretel", the two children who killed their own grandmother and burnt her house! O_o. The cuter they look, the more dangerous they are! (made me think about an episode from "Buffy the wampire slayer" as well... yeah, you know, Hansel and Gretel are in fact devils who seduce the adults try to make them judge and burn alive the witches -Willow and Buffy- who prosecuted them... ok, I confess, I really liked to watch "Buffy the Vampire slayer"... and so what?)  Copyrights-I drew this! -I do not own this fairytale of course! -Tools : TRIA markers, Photoshop 6.0, screetones |

We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
