Nightshift - Original Artwork
In this work I wanted to depict a sense of the deep sustaining power of a mother’s love. Its a strange thing, when I was up night after night, feeding, calming and comforting my children as babies no matter how exhausted I was I also cherished these intimate moments together, realising they don’t last forever. In this piece I wanted to build on an earlier drawing. I wanted to show a sense of the mother nurturing this germinating new life with her entire being. And although she may be up alone with her baby she is not. She is watched and guided by all the other mothers before her. She draws innate strength from this love, a love she is passing to her new little one in a beautiful cycle of tenderness.
