Honoring Milo: A Custom Chalk Pastel Portrait
I recently finished a chalk pastel portrait of Milo, created as a meaningful gift for someone heading off to college—while also mourning the loss of a beloved companion.
This piece was meant to bring comfort, connection, and a sense of presence in a new space. Milo’s portrait now hangs in a college dorm, serving as both a warm memory and a quiet reminder of the love he gave.
Art can be a powerful way to honor those we’ve lost. Whether it’s a pet, a person, or a moment, capturing their spirit on paper helps keep them close in our hearts and homes.
