I will be adding watercolor to this one, for sure!

This is my grandma and her bowl of sour lemon candy.

We lost my Grandma to a heart attack at the age of 62. I was 16 and this was my first devastating loss. Grandma made me feel loved – unconditionally. She never once told me I was “too much” of anything. She was just there for me. I never once doubted that she fully loved me. And I have never stopped loving her.

This Inktober is about remembering the loves, the joys and celebrating that which is good in this life.

Turning pain into beauty.
