Oh HedwigOwl.... this.... this is so amazingly powerful and touching.
It must be one of the most thoughtful and emotional gifts I've ever recieved.
Tikaani's pose and expression perfectly shows how true sadness and agony feels. A mental state I was in in quite a while. The body-language can tell many things about someone, and you made it really well.
You got her markings spot on as well, which I appreciate. ^^
And the white spirit, which I assume to be representing my father, is really beautiful. The wings are really graceful and nicely done. It looks like he's trying to comfort.
And the heart in his chest was a really nice touch. He was a really kind-hearted dad, and this really manages to show that.
And the text in the background adds feels into the drawing that makes the message even more powerful.
I showed it to my mother, brother and sister, and they really liked it. Not that they like the whole situation, but they said it was nice to see, as well as comforting somehow.
It's been hard for me to accept all of these happenings. Just seeing this as reality is something that I can't take in.
It feels like he's on a really long holiday, but will be back in some time.
Seeing his name on the tombstone felt really odd. I still have a hard time imagining that it actually is my father who rests there.
But instead of denying it, I will have to accept it, wether I want it or not.
I may seem strong and happy, but I am very fragile inside. But thanks to all the support I've gotten from you and everyone else, I feel like I have to strength to go on.
We've indeed suffered a great loss, but it feels a bit better now. I am forever grateful to you for making this amazing piece for me and my family.
I can't EVER thank you enough for this!

I'm SO glad you like it! Although i cant fully understand how you feel, I will always give you support! And in a way i guess your dad is on a holiday, you will meet him on the other side eventually!
But i hope you are well and I'm really happy you like the artwork!
Say hi to your family!
