A serious and intense thank you to  Fen. for being willing to draw this absolutely amazing piece. I can't thank you enough for being willing to accept such a hefty challenge.

This commissioned piece is based on a dream I have when I feel sad and alone. In this dream, someone is speaking to me and gently caressing my head. They whisper assurances that everything is ok, but what is say always changes... except for one thing. The dream always ends in the same way. I feel them leaning down as they whisper something in my ear. "I know I'm not always there to comfort you, but know I'm in your heart and dreams, so stay strong my little one." and I wake up.

 Fen. captured the emotions of this dream so perfectly. I actually cried when I finally saw the finished piece. It is... simply beautiful. Seeing it now immortalized in such a wonderful piece reminds me that we are all longing for our special someones, that person who makes us feel at ease with ourselves and the world. Maybe it is a parent, a sibling, a lover, or a friend. Maybe they have already found us and then slipped away. It really doesn't matter if they have yet to come or have already gone, they never truly leave us. They exist in our hearts and our dreams as long as we hold onto them. So don't let go... never let go of the memories and dreams. They will keep you safe from the harshness of the world.
