This picture was drawn and digitized by Sara Eileen. It isn’t one that, at this juncture, I am prepared to speak about. Perhaps one day I will unpack the original, which sits wrapped in protective covering on one of my new apartment’s bookshelves. In the mean time, it still evokes too much sadness to discuss here. For now, I’ll simply enjoy the talent and beauty evident in the piece, while continuing to look to the future.
