A Mom's Love

The portrait, "A Mom's Love", is a portrait of my mom. I chose to do a portrait of my mom because I really miss her. She passed away November 7, 2017 right before her birthday. Losing a mom is especially hard for a girl my age. I don't think I was old enough to handle it and having her pass away while I am this young it hurts. Moms are just really important to someone like me. She is the person who I would normally talk to about the fun things in life and the not so fun things in life. Now I have to wonder who I will talk to about boys, make-up, and all the things that I would face as I become a teenager. This portrait was created using colored pencils and regular pencils. Creating this portrait helped me, in some ways, deal with losing my mom. When I look at this picture I am reminded of how much she did for me and all her good qualities.
