My Mother's Devotion


My Mother's Devotion
14" x 19 3/4"
Watercolor

This is the second painting I've completed of my mother. The first one which was a larger one, is titled "The Devotion of Mother" and can be seen on my website. Mother is 85 and has remained dedicated to those devotions every morning and evening for as long as I can remember. That's my Mom; devoted to her family and everything she does.

I remember seeing the first painting, Linda. This is as great. Tatiana is right; you are lucky to still have your mom. Great paintings.

This is so touching and beautiful, Linda. Each day with your mom is precious - I sure do miss mine, especially at this time of the year.

I agree, a very sensitive painting/portrait.

Such a moving painting and a tribute of love to your mom.

This is beautiful, Linda. My mother is the same age, but unfortunately has late stage Alzheimer's, so there's something very poignant for me in viewing this. It's obvious that you care deeply for your mom, and I'm happy for you that you're able to pay tribute to her and appreciate her presence in your life.
