Save the Family #1
This is my very first painting done for my favorite theme “Save the Family”. It is based on my own family. Gerry and I are in the top center and represent the beginning, foundation, and strength of the family. Our son, Sean, (5th child) is on the top left-hand side, he had meningitis at 10 months old and was in a coma for 4 days, we are lucky to still have him and without any side effects. Our 4 girls Kristina (1st born), Michelle (2nd child), Karen (4th child), and Diana (6th child) are in front of us. Brian, (3rd child) who we lost shortly after birth is in the far right-hand corner. The hearts represent love and family unity. The colours represent birth, family warmth, fear, and death. This is a mixed media painting in which I have used earth and shells amongst other things. The painting represents family life depicting the happy, sad, successful, and difficult times however, always maintaining the true love we have for one another throughout our life circle together.
