Description
This is for my student, Jo.She committed suicide couple of days ago at her apartment.
Far from her home country.
She was in my studio this semester, but I've known her longer than that. She had a face that hard to forget. Pretty, bold but insecure. That is something I am familiar with, something comes with me all the time. But she smiled in a really beautiful way. Innocent, childish smile.
Too little I've talked to her, but too much to remember..
She was talking about how she spent entire two days learning sketchup for her model.
She asked me, is that a simple design not a good design?
Her studio project was almost done. I like her design. It is sorta like her, introvert but powerful in a silent way...
There's too much I wish I could talked with her....
But nothing could be heard now...
Just wish her rest in peace.....

sorry to know that, I had a friend who was also far away for his "natural-original" home if that can be said in those terms, loneliness, depression, are hard to cope with, but it can be done, and also your work show nostalgic beauty, for that really thanks for sharing

This is incredibly beautiful, so much so that I don't think simple words can explain it. It is an incredibly powerful piece, not just because of your wonderful style but because one can truly feel the love behind it. I hope she has found peace.

I like the addition of the background. Sometimes backgrounds tend to detract from an image, but the way you created it, I feel like it gives the figure more emotion and power. So sorry to hear about your student. What I find powerful about this art is that even though I know nothing about her, I feel like through this piece, I do.

This is beautiful. I hope that she's around you to understan that you cared about her. It's so unfortunate that she felt so dejected. Your love is strong. May she rest in peace, in a better place.

I am very sorry to hear about this. I have had people in my life take their own lives as well, i know how hard it can be. I send her friends and family all my consolations.
Nevertheless, your work is always wonderful. Gorgeous transparancies, almost looked like watercolor for a minute.

That is heart breaking...
Sometimes I wish one can know what the other person is suffering from.
We all are in pain, and I wish that society would let people open themselves up to others FREELY. No matter how ugly or dark the truth may be...

I love this, and I can relate to this feeling so well right now. My sister and I both have had suicides at our respective schools in the last week, one of the kids whom I graduated high school with.
It's such a shame when it gets to be too much for a person. I hope at least Jo has found what she's been looking for.
