Mom's Art

A note on the back of this one reads,

"The Sculpted Grotto, known as The Royal Mausoleum, below the Torreon"

Well, I said I'd be uploading some of my mother's art, so ...here's some? lol

My mother recently passed, leaving me with hundreds of drawings and poems and ...pocket books. :P
Anyway, the vast majority of her work will die along with she and I---these arts are just the ones I thought to share here.

Now, I know most who received this notification want to see MY art, not someone else's. That's fine, I guess ...again, I'll not upload TOO much of my mother's art---mostly I'll be uploading enough to get the trash I made pushed off my profile pages.

My mother's preferred medium was ink on parchment paper. Sometimes, she'd color with Sharpie and/or with Gel Pens, etc. Her talent, I think, was in her stippling.

A FAIR WARNING:

Unlike me, my mother liked to look at pictures from coloring books and redraw them. Some of the drawings here are many years old and I don't know the inspirations/derivations of their sources. Additionally, my mother took a literal translation to symbols and cultural artifacts. For example, though she was a Christian, she made use of the 'Peace' sign, taking it for what she thought it meant/represented (I won't upload anything of hers that used that symbol).

I have also removed my mother's signature from her work, mostly because she signed everything with her real name. :P
Additionally, my mother (like me) was autistic, so some of her grammar, spelling and poetry may read oddly. ^^

Last, she had a thing for Native American art and symbols, but (so far as I know) she knew nothing about them (I could be wrong, but I know my mother only recently discovered the internet, and even then, she mostly stuck to FaceBook---I don't think she ever visited Wikipedia).
So, if anything of hers that I upload here offends you, know the art and the person who made it came from a good place. Still don't like it and aren't mature enough to look away? Ok, cry to a moderator and not to me---I'll not take any of it down voluntarily (accept that any way you like).
