Series of 4-number 4

This is my last picture for the series of 4. This one really represents how i feel about my moms cancer right now, and how it makes me feel. If you notice her hair is the most messed up in this one, to represent that it gives me the most stress now than any other time of my life. It has been a way of life for me, with my mom going through her cancer, so that's why the vine is always there, representing the feelings, or just the cancer, even though its not a constant thought in my mind. So this one represents how it still makes me angry and makes me scared, but its not as intense as when i was younger because this is how i have lived my whole life, what i'm used to.

Series of 4-number 3

This is my third series of 4 picture. about 2 years ago, i was sooo mad at my mom for having cancer. I would get mad at her for doing something because she had cancer, and i hated the fact that it was happening and how it affected her. So this one really represents the hate i felt towards the cancer that my mom had, making me get angry at her. 

Series of 4- number 2

This is my second picture for my series of 4. It represents how at about age 10 i was just starting to understand it, and there was a lot of confusion in my life about the cancer and my mom. It also shows fear, which was a feeling i was starting to have at that time. So this one represents the confusion and understanding i was starting to have, instead of not caring about it at all. Also, if you notice in all of my series of 4's, her hair gets more and more messed up to represent the stress that the feelings bring. 

Series of 4- number 1

This is my first picture for my series of 4. My theme is my mom's cancer and how it has affected me in many ways throughout my life. She has had cancer for the last 10 years, it coming back back throughout the years. The vine represents the cancer, or the emotions that it has made me feel. This picture represents when i was 6 years old, when my mom was first diagnosed. It didn't really affect me because i didn't understand it, I didn't know what it was.  So basically it just means that the "emotion" is wrapped around me (the vine), and i could care less because it didn't affect me at all in my life at that time.
