A portrait of Madre Teresa de Calcutá, in case you haven't recognized.
We had to do, for school (in 2015), a work about a kind of role model that had big contributions for the world. That work consisted of doing an informative poster that would be exposed, and I decided to attempt my second portrait ever to add to the exposition. Two things happened: ironically, it was never exposed because my teacher was afraid that someone would steal or destroy the drawing; and that same teacher, who never told us she was going to keep our works with her forever, decided to take the drawing both as part of the work and as a gift for her. She never returned it, and I never had the courage to tell her otherwise. Oh well... she is not the first person stealing things I lent with good intentions. What matters is, this portrait has some massive improvements in relation to my previous portrait and it made me sure my first attempt was not just amateur's luck, therefore encouraging me to draw more portraits in the future.
