New work in my Loss series: Good Morning.
Everyday, as the day began when I was a teenager, I would say Good Morning to my family members, and one sibling always responded by saying “What’s so good about it?” This was a red flag that they needed help, but my mother was unable to see this because of her own emotional issues that haunted her her whole life.
Good Morning is mixed media on fabric and measures 28" x 31". There is a monoprinted pattern of a rounded construction fence on an embroidery I purchased on eBay, with stitching following the lines of the fence pattern, handstamped ovals in the “holes” of the fence pattern, and appliquéd rounded squares in the corners.
