today i am trying to see the beauty of nostalgia and heartbreak. a little over 6 months ago i completed a drawing that was about devotion and the heartache of a long lost love. the photograph i used was of a woman whose devotion to her deceased husband manifested itself in her long, dreaded hair. she is absolutely beautiful and as i studied her face and transfered her wrinkles and skin and long locks to the paper i became her. i felt and understood her. today i think of her and hope to find the strength and grace that she must possess.
