Mama
A while back I felt compelled to draw a picture of Mum/Moannie. I have only ever painted one other portrait, in the '80's of my namesake Sara who was about three at the time...now a married lady. So I gave it a go...and after several days of looking at the drawing I gathered the courage to add some watercolour.. I was scared that I would overdo the paint and lose the impression I wanted...which was to capture the essence of Mum...which I believe I have in her eyes and lovely mouth.. I did however overwork it...and completely lost the fluidity and looseness I liked before I spoiled it. Luckily l took a digital image of it at it's best and I had this enlarged and printed. l presented Mum and Dad with it and they were delighted.
