Lucie the Fay

I did this art piece for my dearest mother, Lucie. She lost her boyfriend of the last 15 years earlier last month. She has ups and downs and the mourning is very hard for her.

I had the idea to do an illustration that she could see every day so she would remembers that she's not alone and my brothers and I will always be there for her.

I'm very proud of this artwork. I thing that it's the best I ever did. It's the first illustration I ever give to someone and it's a real joy to give it to my mother.

She cried, I cried and she was really happy!
