    Celebrating Mom

    7th May, 2020 / Art, Mixed Media / No Comments

    With Mother’s Day fast approaching, I wanted to share a little something from last year, something that was one of my favorite commissions to date.

    I had a client come in whose mother had recently passed, seeking a commemorative painting that included a very meaningful poem and her mother’s favorite flowers, Queen Anne’s Lace.

    I followed my usual process for this painting, with the poem collaged in as part of the background, then building up the layers until I get to the detail work of the flower.

    During a studio visit, the client stopped by to check in, and requested a companion piece to represent her husband’s mother. For this one she supplied a poem with script written by his mother to be included.

    Both I and the client were very happy with how these turned out. This is one of those times that we artists love – being able to connect with our clients and giving them heartfelt artwork to fill their home.

"The World is so Full of a Number of Things" is fr "The World is so Full of a Number of Things" is from a series I did at the beginning of 2019. ⁠
⁠
This group of work was all about routine and repetition and habit. It was not only about the fresh starts that we try to take on with the start of a new year, but also about the ongoing habits that impact our lives.⁠
⁠
We see developing new habits and changing ourselves as the path to the future, but I also noticed that maintaining the existing routines was one thing that helps keep my Dad going as his memory fails him.⁠
⁠
It is a fine line we all walk to keep moving forward while holding onto those things from the past we still need.⁠
⁠
What are you looking forward to in the new year? What are the good things that you are carrying along with you?⁠

Spent the last week cleaning out my dad’s house Spent the last week cleaning out my dad’s house after getting them moved to be close to family for assistance with the challenge of living with Alzheimer’s. 

Emotionally exhausted from all the sorting and decision making on what to keep and what can go. 

But then you uncover treasures like this: my dad, my brother, and I with Tigger in my grandparents’ back yard. So many wonderful, supportive memories come flooding back from just one image.
