Family Portrait 

Mother, Son and new puppy

This art work is a personal story of the day my youngest son brought home his own puppy. If he was to be the same as his brother (who already had a dog), all promises of total care and responsibility would fade over time and once again, as the mother of the tribe, I would inherit the lion’s share of care for this new little family member. 

This artwork will no doubt be shown to my son’s children when they ask for their own puppy, and they will say they are ready and he will assume the care that they don’t know they are not ready for. It's just the way it is with puppies and children it seems.
