A Mother’s Love by Stephanie Galloway

When I was a child I would bring a work of art I made to my mom and she would proudly display it on the refrigerator. The loving act of her doing this gave me confidence in myself and pride in my work. It also encouraged me to continue being creative. The public display in the house for all the family members to see and enjoy made me feel more a part of the family. I always carry with me the love she put into appreciating my art.

In much the same way when you put out a work of art for Free Art Friday and hear back that someone picked it up and took it home for some motherly love, care and appreciation. Make some art to share and help to nurture the artist within you and put it out there to grow from the loving care of someone that will give it a home.
