Please Forgive Me


      Digital

This was intended to be the cover of a book.  The story goes: a daughter sews her mother a pillow cover in school in preparation for a PTA meeting.  At the last minute, this working mom has to cancel and remain at work, devastating the little girl who had been anticipating her mother's reaction upon receiving the pillow she had worked so hard to make.  At home the mother seeks the daughter's forgiveness and attempts to explain the sacrifices working moms must make sometimes in order to provide for their family.
Too bad the book deal failed but the story remains a sweet and relevant one and serves as a good narrative for an illustration.
