History Behind the Artwork:

The artist believes she drew a random realistic eye, then built a face around it, and realized it looked like the Les Miserable poster. She feels she was probably really proud of this piece with how detailed the shading is. The artist really enjoyed Les Misérables the musical at this time because her sister forced her to watch the Live Concert edition that had just came out (because Nick Jonas was in it). 

About the Artist:

Jenn Rust is an artist, writer, and archivist. Jenn sees art as more of a hobby, but does do art for online projects (The Sunflower Club, Indie TTRPG, Commissions, etc.) She has been drawing all her life, and its both a physical need to draw and a form of expression for her. Jenn's old art is really important to her and she has kept almost every sketchbook and art she has ever created since early middle school. She loves looking back at her old art and seeing how much fun she had and how much she has grown since.
