The Life Within

An Ode to my Mother

"Breast Cancer"









I did this portrait a week or so ago, for my mom.



I feel like I have been on a mental and emotional rollercoaster for a few months now. Learning, growing, expanding in so many ways, from my mothers death. Connecting with people on a much deeper level. Inspired to do great things. At the same time feeling held back. Wanting to burst. Wanting to scream. My head is full. Reaching its capacity for normalcy. Headfirst into the fires of another way.
