They are much closer to survival mode than we are; they buffer us so we do not have to feel.I honor them.

I definitely have conflicting feelings on the subject of illegal immigration because I feel everyone deserves a chance to have the "American Dream", or just A dream. At the same time, how would our country be without their presence? The painting is great, especially the way you did the colors in her skin.

I see subtle happiness and hope in her full mouth. Overall I perceive confident character, pride, and faint regality, or perhaps wisdom. I do not see disappointment, but sluggish weariness. She is familiar. She is comfortable with herself. Her emotions and plight are reminiscent to all, embodied overwhelmingly in the immigrant, also known as the human spirit searching for liberty and better life.

It seems that she expected more and was let down. But one hopes she isn't down and out. I think it's often difficult to look at someone person-to-person (as we do in studying a portrait) and then continue to apply the negative generalities that are so prevalent. So please continue to create and display your portraits. What I see in this portrait is beauty, dignity and strength but, after all, disappointment. It seems that she expected more and was let down.
