My mother was born this day...
'Remembering her
© 2024 Pamela MacCarthy
I created this painting many Summer's ago,
while visiting my mother in upstate NY.
It's a fond memory, visiting her there from Japan,
with my son Michio, and celebrating her birthday,
August 18th...
Today, my mother is gone, my childhood home upstate is gone,
Akio and my home and life in Japan, gone...
Loss is a bitter pill.
But today I honor and remember my mother, Shirley.

(My Personal Collection)
This is a painting I did in July 1996 while visiting my family and childhood home...
The vivid color, the light, the scents,
and the heat of July in upstate New York,
are a fond memory...
This is in my personal collection, as I can't part with it,
but I hope to make this and selected pieces of my artwork,
available in limited edition prints.
Till Next Time...
