ART STYLE/MEDIUM DESCRIPTION (HOW DID YOU CREATE IT)?

:This artwork symbolizes the death of my father. On November 10th, 2018, my father passed away from alcoholism. the death was painful for many in my family but not as painful as him being here on this earth. He was loved by all, but hurt the most people who loved him. This sketch is to symbolize how the death of my father brought pain but also peace. It also represents how letting our mind affect our emotions can make it more painful than the actual death. Thus letting my mind and sadness eat away at everything and leaving nothing but the memories.
