I think everyone can see the feeling behind this and that's what art is about: sharing your feelings.

Even the sad feelings can become beautiful and you sure did that. The beautiful flower is really well done and it's white, is that pure or the wish for peace? Each one fits perfectly here.
It's really hard to explain ourselfs when we're lost inside us, but the pieces of the puzzle plus the little one with the blood, really show how she's loosing herself.

I also love how carefull you were with the colours, they're light and gentle, we can really focus on her.

I have to admit tha the first time I looked at this, her eyes looked weird to me, but looking again and again they just give us the feeling she's not here. She's somewhere else lost in her thoughts.

About you're technique, I think everyone can see the amazing progress you've been making since your first piece. I love this collection of drawings, everytime they show up on my messages I can really tell they're yours.

That's your unique and beautiful style! :heart:

Having lost a parent myself, I take something special from this piece. The colors fit the mood perfectly - I feel a a strong essence of loss from them. Adding to that is the look on your face. The flow is amazing, due to the writing leading down to you and then my eye flows right to your face, then to your hand. The flower in your hair keeps drawing me to it, particularly the middle - that's of course because of the bright yellow that is standing out against the other neutral colors. It gives me a feeling of what once was, and the petals near you show the loss of what once was.

Really, I'm not good at these things, but I didn't feel that a fave was good enough for this. It truly is beautiful, and I hope to someday procure something out of my work that would be so connected that I could dedicate it to my Daddy.

Good job Katie <3
