There's something about babies in their mama's arms. Or papas.
The images make perfect etegami for new moms.
Although... this one was painted after seeing children ripped out of their mother's arms
and separated at border crossing. It's just not right.
This etegami reminds us that guarding our aging parents fiercely
is just as important as when they guarded us when we were little.
This arose after taking care of my mom and dad in nursing homes and assisted living.
I painted this for a friend who has a grown up son with severe autism.
Such children need their parents through their whole lives.
A daunting task.
Kokeshi (wooden dolls) and their babies are easy to paint and so very sweet!
(The Japanese one has the words to a song about sweet little baby).
Painted for a new mother who used to live in Bern (Bear)
Not to forget daddys!! This one painted for my son.
Could've been for a new mom but ended up giving to my mother.
She has it on her wall above where she eats breakfast.
And for a new mother.
