Alison

This is Alison. She is one of my second cousins and she lives in Houston, Texas. It is especially interesting for me when I am drawing family members. As I was drawing Alison, I would catch glimpses of my grandmother and especially my grandmother's sister, who was Alison's grandmother. And along with these resemblances come memories. Unfortunately, I don't have many memories with Alison. Our lives have been separate enough by distance and age that our paths rarely cross.
