Answer:

Wendy Macnaughton is an illustrator and graphic journalist. She is know for her "drawn journalism", which she creates after spending some time and interviewing different communities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Wendy´s illustrated documentaries are art pieces she does by compiling information from drawings and interviews of people into a book or collection of drawings. She explains that her illustrated documentaries rely heavily on observing the world around her, she conducts interviews to have a better understanding of her subject, and draws a picture based on that. She describes the visual artwork she makes as stories, and combines illustration, journalism and social work to tell the stories of overlooked people and places. Her illustrations are like short stories and I would describe them as almost a comic or cartoon. She focuses on telling a story with her drawings, and her drawings are very stylized.
