The Story Behind the Painting

Story Behind the Poem

I remember making this painting and immediately after my mind kept repeating “the story behind this painting” and my heart felt like a poem was needed to explain the depth of it. I was struggling through the grief of my daughter’s dad’s death and not knowing how to be there for her without smothering her was really bothering me. Making this painting and writing this poem brought me so much comfort.
