Happy Thursday! Here's a watercolor pencil [View all]

and ink drawing I made in 2000, when I left my first husband. It's called 'The Burning of Esharhamat's Heart'.

I was reading 'The Assyrian' when I created this. It's really in essence a self portrait. I was really sad. There's negative space that I never quite filled up - an allegory I suppose. We have her hanging on our wall. A favorite of mine. She actually looks like me.
