Update on Sketchbook Project!

So- here’s an update on my Sketchbook project journal. I tried out a new medium! It’s a water-soluble oil pastel and I really enjoyed it!

This work is titled, “ A mother’s sorrow”

Thanks for all the thoughtful and insightful comments. I truly enjoyed reading all of them. This piece actually has a deep, personal meaning for me. It reflects a part of the grieving process that I am working through in my personal life. And as I'm sure all of you know, art is an excellent way to begin healing.
Warmest Holiday Wishes to everyone! Namaste.
