My Grandmother

First journal page of 2008. Blissfully Art Journalling proposed the theme of "Granny", and this is my page for it.
My Gram was an amazing woman. She had children at a time when it was not uncommon that either mother or child, or both, died in childbirth. She had three miscarriages for seven pregnancies. She is largely responsible for who I am today, excepting my faults.
