For this project, you are to create an illustration depicting an urban legend or story from popular folklore. An urban legend is a genre of folklore comprising fallacious claims or stories circulated as true, especially as having happened to a “friend of a friend” or a family member, often with horrifying, humorous, or cautionary elements. For my project, I made an illustration of the urban legend, “La Llorona” known as The Weeping Women. In the legend, no one knows when the legend of La Llorona began or where it originated. Though the tales vary from source to source, the common thread is that she is the spirit of a doomed mother who drowned her children and spends eternity searching for them in rivers and lakes.
