This is my mother, Ms Lu, a lenient lady. Whenever I am confused or make a mistake she tolerates my errors and guides me towards a clear path. This is what I wanted to portray: the endless support and selfless love that hide in her silence and contemplation. I focused on the facial features through realistic rendering, while bringing out her forgiving character with soft, indistinct lines.
