Pinch of Poverty

Three things that infulence and grow poverty is addiction to drugs/alchohol, unemployment, and limited education.
The artist portrays poverty as gloomy, he does so by the rainy enviroment and the sad faces he paints.
The artist's message about poverty is that there is hope that impoverished people can make it out, he also says that you can help.
Oney he conveys this message to me is by making the color of the baby's blanket stand out. The bright red blanket that the baby is in symbolizes hope that he may someday make it out of his bad situation. Also, another element, the girl is holding out her flower to sell, is a symbol for something you can do. These ways include donating, giving food, etc...
