Description
a 18th century couple - Thomas and Martha Jeffersonmy previous work with these two: 1 | 2
because they both knew what ‘Death’ means: Martha lost her mother when she was just 6 days old -probably because of her birth- and 4 children during her lifetime (one from a previous marriage ; three with Thomas). Later, Thomas buried her and two of their daughters. Only one of their 6 children past the age of 25.
ugh… poor babies :’(

If only I saw your artworks before going through two years of US history, I would have had references and make little AUs in my head all the time and I would have kept everything in my head and... aaaaand *cries*
I love your interpretation, their looks, the clothes. Everything.

I can't stop falling in love with your work. Just. So many feels keep happening and it doesn't seem normal.

Ah what a harsh, cruel fate to endure, watching all your children and now your adored wife died before you. That must have been horrendous! This is goreous, by the way-the ringlets of hair, the detail of their frocks and the interlocking of her delicate hand upon his neck...your art work astounds me more and more and I can only dream that one day I can draw my beloved historical figures in this manner too! You have no idea how much I enjoy and admire your work, a million times, thank you!

C'est quoi leur histoire à ces deux là?

See, in history class we never found out about stuff like that. If we did, I think I'd have loved my US history classes much more!
This piece is really lovely. Beautiful color and lines.

That's a really beautiful piece, it's simple and caring, I love it.
May I ask why you are currently working on Thomas Jefferson so much ?

LOL i don't know

Yes, I would know about the French program being French myself (you might wonder why, then, do I comment in English? probably because your description was ^^).
Anyway, you triggered my curiosity and made me want to look a little more into Jefferson's life, thanks

(excuse my pitiful attempt at French. I'm only a second year student, but this is such a great picture)
