Whew! Can I just say... WHEW! It took me forever to finish this. Not this particular drawing but actually trying to come up with something for the contest. Although the shading sure took a while. And it's still not as good as I had hoped. Yeesh. Thank you, God, I am done. Whew. This girl is on standing on her porch looking at the waves as they lap the shore. So this drawing is about a fifteen year old girl who's father, who was a sailor, died in a ship accident at sea. The ship sunk, so they couldn't get the body. So she and her mother now live alone in their beach house in a small sea side town. PLEASE READ- I remember when you used to tell me stories of the sea. I remember I would laugh and dream of being out there with you someday. I remember when you would promise me that I would. I remember playing on the beach, keeping just out of the waves reach. I remember when I would sit on your lap and we'd dream together. I remember the night you died. I remember Mom crying and me holding her, and her holding me. I remember trying to sleep that night. I remember waking the next day forgetting what had happened then it all coming back to me like an on coming train. I remember neighbors, friends and family coming to comfort us, and me pushing them away, because I only wanted you. I remember you tickling me 'till' tears ran down my cheeks. Now, five years later, my tears still run, but they aren't of laughter. It took me awhile to forgive you for dying. But I guess you couldn't help it. Sometimes, I go out on the beach and call your name, hoping you can hear me. And most of the time, especially when the sky is gray and the sea is green, I know you can.
