Mom's Art

 My Mom was always talented.
When we were growing up, she sewed every curtain,
bedspread and throw-pillow.
She sewed my jumpers and knit my sweaters. 
There were needlepoint tapestries that took her 2 years to do...
And the wallpaper in the playroom! She drew the entire thing herself.

Now that she is in her 80's and has Dementia, she has taken up painting.
I wish she knew how beautiful these are...

I am sure she does know. Maybe she can't communicate but I am sure she is aware. Lovely artwork. Thanks for sharing.
