“

Your absence has gone through me
Like thread through a needle.
Everything I do is stitched with its color.

First project for illustration this year… it’s the story of a stranded sailor sending letters to his girlfriend back home, and a lonely mermaid finding them and thinking they were for her. I thought it was a cute idea, and decided to draw it. Will probably make some small changes later and repost.
