I’ve always seen my aunt Charity as beautiful. .

I’ve always seen my aunt Charity as beautiful.
.
As her niece, I’ve had the pleasure of growing up knowing the beautiful woman she is, and never being disturbed by her scars. It’s impossible for me to look at a picture of her and see her for only her oddities, as a stranger might.
.
When I look at her, I see the wonderful aunt, sister, and woman of faith she is. I see her independence, her creativity, and her humility that have inspired me for so long—even though she lives states away. I remember her sympathy and compassion for me as the oldest in my large family, and her offer that I reach out to her if it’s ever too much. She was an eldest child too.
.
In fact, the first time I saw a picture of her without her scars may have been when I was reading her book. And the way my little niece brain works, I view her as being more beautiful now, scars and all.
.
When she was twenty-five, her doctor said that the biggest thing that stands out about her is her faith. I 100% agree.
.
It is an absolute delight to invite others to read my beautiful aunt’s story. To take up the journey of a girl who was faced with hardships too big for her, but not too big for her God. Renew your trust in the Creator who has stood by the side of so many others as they have faced tragedy. And look ahead to when He will make all things new again.

This is my entry for @heatherroseiv’s Draw This In Your Style challenge!
.
The first picture is mine and the second is Heather’s original character, a steampunk secret agent guardian wizard. 😁
.
I had so much fun watercoloring this picture and its background. I used a toothbrush to spray paint the stars. 😂
