Liz was an incredible girl. She kept smiling even though she was undergoing chemo therapy for a cancer that returned after months in remission. Liz was my art student, and by all rights should have graduated from high school, experienced college with all its glory,and gone on to have a great life. Instead, she suffered from a terribly unjust illness that robbed the world of this joy of a girl....Her faith was a true inspiration for us all. This portrait is a commemoration that I painted for her family..
