My father passed away in June of 2012 from cancer. My Dad was someone who I always felt was there for me... no matter what. He always had my back and was a big supporter of my artistic endeavours. I miss him terribly.
There have been times since his death that I have felt his presence so strongly. One particular time, I was sitting outside and the sun was streaming through the clouds. At the same time, leaves were rustling in a nearby tree and I knew he was right there. I've been trying to capture this moment through sketches for a long time.... feelings are not always easy to capture.
The poppies in the foreground represent myself and my siblings. I drew each one with care and with love. We are all still struggling with his death in our own ways. I am fortunate to have felt his closeness before and after his death.
New challenge starts tomorrow.... not sure what it will be yet. Suggestions are welcome.
