disappointment

Watercolor and minor digital enhancement.

Alot of work...

I will update as I finish the pieces, hopefully. If not...updates after I finish the stuff I HAVE to do.
Erm...where to start? I guess with whatever project has been waiting longest.

Possibly for Illustration Fri-escape

Self..I grieve, with all depth, I mourne for what and who once was, and what never was.
I mourne for all the "hims", it seems.

-My lover
-My Father
-My "should be" lover
-My comforter

Perhaps they died. Perhaps I never allowed them to be.

I grieve for myself. And I, myself, am grief.

( older drawing...done when near the time my Dad died of lung cancer...but the loss felt ranges far and wide in my inner ladscape..and applies to so much, and so many others. )

( I have a hell of alot more tattoos then I did at that time. This was "tattoo summer" for me.)

I want to thank someone, who means more than words could ever convey, for suggesting this pic for this theme. I was a bit stumped.
