Beauty is Everywhere

We should be at the end of this HOT weather... During the last 2 weeks I've been waking up at 4 am and doing housework until 9 or 10 am. After that hour it's impossible to do anything without sweating like a pig (as we say in Italian). Even drawing is an effort....

Yesterday I was informed that my injured aunt has got fever. My parents (who are 78 and 76) have been staying at her house  for a month now, and I think they will stay another one.... I know they are very tired, because the situation is not easy. But they don't want me to go there. And I don't know how to help them. There is nothing to do. You only have to keep an eye on her and go to checkups with her... I'm really sad. 
I can only send positive and healing energies to them and hope everything goes back to normal asap.

    Lovely art, Simona. I hope your aunt's fever goes away soon and your parents can get back to their normal life. Auntie is lucky to have loving relatives who are willing to help.

    They are so wonderful! Even though you may have sweat like a pig to accomplish them...it was well worth it. I'll pray for your family because I know it's a hard time for everyone.

    Both these pieces are great. All the detail you put into their hair is marvelous.
    Hope aunt is recovered soon, and your parents can get back to their own home.

    I'm a little late visiting but I hope your Aunt is getting better and over the fever.
    It's always being away from family and not being able to do all that you'd like to do.
    Wow those ladies are stunning ...what beautiful artwork.
    Keep smiling and I'm sending best wishes for your family! :D
