News — motherhood paintings

I have been so inspired by circles lately! And I just love seeing them all clustered together :) What has been inspiring YOU this week?   I have been creating a small series of one-of-a-kind original round paintings on 8x8 inch paper and releasing them first to my private KmBerggren Community on Facebook (you can ask to join, especially since something really neat is coming to that page this week!). Then I release them onto my Instagram page. There have been 10 so far, and today I have the 11th to share with you!   I’m taking buyers for these pieces...

I turn to my Facebook Group first, when I want to connect or ask a question. Also Instagram. YOUR voices matter to me ♥ My Facebook Group lovingly supported my recent Art Auction and some of them became owners of the original paintings. All of the auction paintings found homes - some of 'my people' sent me such kind words, I want to share them with you! Original Paintings are GENERATIONAL ~ they increase in value each year. They enrich a life, then are passed down as cherished objects, hand to hand. Original art will continue to give back to you, day after day....

Here’s an example, can you relate?
I’ll be painting in the studio – then I’ll decide to go fill my teacup. I’ll go in and the teapot water is cold or gone, so I’ll fill it and flip the button.

While it is heating up, I’ll put a couple kitchen-y things away, see a dirty towel and take it to the laundry room. There, I’ll remember that I have a load drying, so I check it. Re-fluff or even fold. Put some clothes away.

Then, when putting some towels away in the bathroom I’ll realize there is a little mess, so I’ll take care of that. I’ll remember I want to start a load, so I’ll run upstairs to see if there are any dirties up there. I’ll discover lights on – turn them off. Open blinds for plants – dust something with a piece of laundry…

I knew I wanted these four paintings to be unique – as this feeling of hatching young men into the world is unique…
I WILL have prints of these on my wall, as a celebration of the journey and a reminder of the TRUST I/we must have, and most importantly of the JOY that is coming up for my boys and YOUR boy(s)...

I have a new series of paintings to share with you - something I've been obsessing over this week...   NOTE: My lovely Group Members at the KmBerggren Community Group on Facebook saw these first, and gave me some great feedback. Ask to join the group (where I show first glances at products and paintings), we'd love to have you!   I came home from errands the other morning, and as I walked in realizing my sons were still asleep upstairs, I thought about how big they are now. About how when they were little I had so many names...
