I drew this sophisticated lady for a commission almost two years ago. At that time it was just a part of a lot of other drawings I had to make. The deadline was very tight and the weather was very nice, so I drew most of the drawings in a rush. But now I see that this lady has the chin of my mother and the eyes of my father and that pointed finger has also something to do with a phrase most mothers use:"Listen to me, my son, didn't I tell you that ..........". Recognizable? Spooky, isn't it?
Anyway, in about two weeks from now we can honour our mothers again. Or their wrinkles ;-)
