Description

A Mother’s Love captures a quiet, intimate moment between a mother and her child. The baby rests against her chest, held close in a gesture that feels instinctive and protective. The composition centers on connection rather than detail, allowing the emotional presence of the moment to take precedence.

Three butterflies surround them, adding a sense of lightness and movement to the scene. Their presence brings balance to the tenderness of the embrace, suggesting breath, transition, and the gentle unfolding of life. Nothing feels rushed. The moment exists as it is, complete and sufficient.

This piece carries a soulful quality that is felt more than explained. It speaks to care, safety, and the kind of love that is both grounding and expansive. The scale of the work allows the figures to feel present and anchoring within a space, offering warmth without excess.

Living with the Work

A Mother’s Love is well suited to spaces where softness and emotional presence are welcome, such as a bedroom, living room, or personal family area. It offers a sense of calm and reassurance, becoming a steady visual companion rather than a focal point that demands attention.
