You shaped my life. You were by my side for a long time. You supported me when my life was particularly difficult.
The process of drawing was a connection when I was not allowed to see you. And at the same time, a way of saying goodbye. I carry you in my heart. You are the courage within me to create my art and show myself through it. I wish we could walk this path together.

Portrait of the artist Ingrid Günther, my forever beloved stepmother.
