This project that I'm beginning has got to be the most emotional I've ever done... as it will portray an image of my grandmother and niece, both, passed on. Normally, I stall working on a project, giving excuses such as, "I'm trying to work the design in my mind." Or, "I'm trying to get motivated." Things like that. But this time, I'm stalling because I really don't think I want to do this drawing! It's... the reality of what I've set out to do.
Drawing angels; my grandmother and niece - one that I loved dearly for most of my life - the other, I wanted to love me for most of hers.
I draw them together to somehow, justify their parting.
