And on a personal note, my daughter Marlena was stillborn twenty years ago. I can feel your grief in your image here. Beautiful, sorrowful, and I won't give you any trite suggestions here.
Using art is so valuable.
I hope to get to know you better through Art Every Day Month. I still enjoy (strange word) being able to safely talk about Marlena.
Twenty years and three subsequent children, I still love talking safely about Marlena.
Cool sketch, Rachel. Really evocative of what it is like to be babylost.
ReplyDeletei've had days like that too. :)
ReplyDeleteI've had many days like this. Such a powerful drawing.
ReplyDeleteOver time, the blinds will recede a bit, but until you are ready, it's okay to be behind them, peeking out.

ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful. Ohmigawsh.
