This painting portrays a mother in her living room playing with her young daughter in central Phoenix, created shortly before the pandemic. It marks a continuation of an earlier work made in the same space, quietly highlighting how quickly life can shift in a short span of time. The contrast between these moments reflects change, growth, and the uncertainty that followed. The piece was started from life, allowing the feeling of the moment to guide the work naturally. A loose underpainting sets the movement and fluidity that carry through the scene. Soft pinks and purples move throughout the space, chosen to reflect the calm, loving energy shared between mother and child and the warmth present in their home.
