SOLD ♥ Beyond Measure - Original Painting

Message from the Artist: An original painting from the Thrive Collection.

I struggle with putting into words the endlessness of devotion this mother feels. Her children are warm and smooth and squishy in all the right places. They have sticky cheeks and shiny eyes and a sweetness towards each other that is incalculable.  The heart feels it, she feels it, they feel it.

In a whip snap I can put myself here, in this trio, because I am part of a trio made up of two sweet boys. Sunflowers represent endless and infinite love. Sincere and true love til the end, unfettered by moods, mishaps, mistakes and messes. Two huge sunflowers shine on this trio – two souls loving endlessly from the other side, perhaps? Or representing a garden where play can be found.

A beautiful African American mother and two bi-racial curly haired children with big yellow sunflowers and braided hair, to celebrate motherhood in a field of flowers. A meaningful keepsake for a mother of two. Original paintings are unique one-of-a-kind gifts that last a lifetime. Mother and 2 sons images, beautiful Mother's day paintings.

The Thrive Collection. Flourishing despite circumstances, because Spring is a season of intoxicating hope and we are destined to THRIVE. We will push from the soil and reach toward the sky, as we ache for sun and breeze after being tucked away.

Soon is a time for becoming something new – a new version of ourselves. With stronger stalks and more fragrant blossoms. With more texture and layers of meaning that unfold without apology, as we seek to discover new directions.

From dark into light we will go, taking our children along with us. Proving that buds stagnated can eventually bloom. Our flowers may be a big dingy, a bit starved for light, but they are holding strong. Holding out hope. At our fleshy centers, our cores, we believe. We will let inflammation and pain slip away, heaviness will fall from our shoulders and joints.

If flowers are the enlightenment of plants (E. Tolle), then we can marvel at a fresh bloom and know that there is promise for us as well. Infinite promise.
