Eleanor Cameron Princess Carmie

This is a portrait of my nana Carmel, aka Princess Carmie. I’m 17, yet I feel suffocated by the anxiety around who I want to be in life. At times like this, I look up to my nana. Looking at her, you wouldn’t know she is nearly 90, as she’s absolutely larger than life. She wears sparkly shirts and leather jackets, and loves a chat. Her hair and make-up are perfect as she struts (albeit slowly) into the room with the brightest smile. Looking at her, I remember that life is a gift and I have nothing to worry about.
