Tiny Yolita

 

Tiny...  but well.  [watercolor.]

Second Chance

 

Whew!  [micron + PS color.]

Early Again!

 

Can you imagine the anxiety level?  Oh boy!  [micron + PS color.]

Happy Again

 

I had such fun with this tiny painting.  Allegory of Suzette and Victor's mental state.  Can you tell what painting I took inspiration from?  [acrylic on paper.]

Smiles and Laughter

 

How nice to share a happier time in Suzette's life.  [micron + gouache + a bit of PS]

Friends' Visit

  

How can anyone have bad thoughts holding a sweet new-born?   [micron + PS color.]

Friends Are Expecting

 

Suzette is ashamed of the mean thoughts she had.  But thoughts are just that: thoughts.   [microns + PS colors.]

Failure and Anxiety

 

Remember those imps?  Oh boy!  [brush line + PS coloring]

Darkness à Deux.

 

Hard times with support is easier to bear. [pen&ink + watercolor.]

Hard Mornings

 

 Sometimes, sleep is such a refuge.  [brush&watercolor]

Babies Everywhere.

 

Or how pain can distort reality.  

Winter in the Country

 

Suzette and Victor's little house in the country.  A very  dark winter.  [acrylic on paper.]

Emptiness

 

Same little house, same inhabitants, such emptiness. 

Ashes

 

Rosita

 

Here is a delicate embroidery by Suzette, of her little girl the way she remembered her lying peacefully in her arms for the first and last time.   She was named Rosita. 

Too Early

 

And then...

 

Fall in the Country

 

Summer gave way to Fall.  The little house was cozy and orderly. 

Nesting

 

Suzette and Victor, getting ready for baby-to-come in their little country house.  

End of Summer

 

Suzette and Victor's little house in the country.  End of summer evening.  

Move to the Country

 

Suzette and Victor can be practical too when planning for baby-to-come.  

Anticipation

 

 Having fun with PS colors...  Also skipped shading to save time and liking it better.  That's good.
