IF • Homage

Illustration Friday’s topic this week is: HOMAGE
I originally painted this piece shortly after my mother passed away a few years ago, it was to acknowledge and honor her.

She came from Boston, Massachusetts but lived most of her life in Caracas, Venezuela. She had an amazing mind, incredible memory and was patient with grace. It is her that helps me make some of those smart decisions in life.

I tried to captivate her presence from that other world surrounded by the lush and energetic flora and life of the tropics where she lived.
Coincidentally, her anniversary is coming up very soon…

Today,
I mowed the grass, pulled out weeds and picked up the many scattered small broken branches.
While sprucing up of the yard, I noticed that here was an abundance of prime building materials.

Then I realize that nature sure does know and plans well for what is next… "Nests"

For the birds have been very busy around here with the chirping, calling each other…
…and building Developments for Births!

Affliction,

A glowing flamed oval sits among the sharp and pointed.
It will remind us to heed to the fact that “pain” is part of life.

Go with humility, patience and care on these roads of anguish and grief.
Upon traveling them “feel, learn, accept and grow.”

For then eventually life will “grant us relief” from the bearing of those thorns.
