MY MOM
I send a lot of love to my mother, she really need it actually.
It suck when someone you love is in pain and that you can't help her suffer less, I'd wish to be able to take some of her pain and give her some of my strength and health

She's actually in a clinic and we don't know exactly what she has, she's so tired than she can walk only less than 5 minutes, it's maybe something with heart.
She will have a big exam on tuesday and I really hope that they will find what's the cause of her health problems.

She has already several illnesses: heart murmure, circulations problems, depression since many years, diabetis, rheumatism- arthritis-hernieted discs in neck (not operable)
She tried morphine patches but she got an allergie, so she's back to many tablets and stomach problems :S

But even with everything bad which happened in her life, she' still enthusiastic and gives a lot of love to others.

I'm so lucky that she's my mother, I really love her (even if I don't really say it) and I'd like to spend much more time with her doing art, going to pick mushrooms, walking and cooking.

She's such a nice and smart person with a ton of interesting knowledge

I'm a bit late for her mother day present, I'm doing a painting for her, but what counts is the feeling behind it.

EXHIBITIONS?

I'm seriously thinking about doing an exhibition but I need some advises/tips.
How many paintings should I have to begin one?, how much can I price my paintings, where should I look first for places to exhibit.
However I think that I will still paint some in my fruity nudes serie.

Pour les personnes en Suisse romande, est-ce que vous auriez des endroits à me conseiller?

Merci bcp/thanks a lot

FIRSTPOTTERY

Youhouu I finally spanked my butt and tried it.
I had non firing clay that I bought some time ago but I wasn't enough motivated to try it and finally I did it
It's so much funnn, but now I have to buy some, I couldn't finish one because I hadn't enough clay hehe.
I think that I will paint them later and I have other ideas


If you have some tips/advices or crits they are welcome
