As an only child, of an only child and another parent with one sibling who had no children of his own, I have a very small family (not counting my husband’s side of the family) and all but one of them has passed away. All that’s left in my branch of the family tree are my mother and me. So obviously I drew my mom. She came of age in the mid century with all it’s glamour and fashion, so I poured over my photos till I found this beauty and based my drawing on it:

Beautiful job!

Love it! She looks like a movie star in that shot. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree either. 😃

All you need to do is add one line in response to the opening line which is ‘she was the only titanium woman in the village’. Deadline midnight 1st December. Cheers.

You have done a splendid job Meg! Your mom will be proud. You resemble her to a large extent. How about posting one of your photographs when you were approx her age in this pic? By the way, is shd doing okay in US?

Thank you, Prema! She’s doing well. We’re going to see her later this month and I’m looking forward to it! I will see if I have any good photos of me at that age. I’m not optimistic!
