Post square 020213 ~ Goodbye For Now

This drawing is an abstraction from a detail of a photograph of Hillary Rodham Clinton on her last day as secretary of state. She is pictured surrounded by staff members, most of them recording the event on their smart phones. The Washington Post has given the image the title "A photo finish". I'd like to think she's just getting started.

The composition is made up of some of the arms lifting phones and from folds and stripes of clothing, a button. I embellished the plain shapes with some patterns just for fun.
