About the Artwork:
Dear M, D, F and V, I wish I was a better mum. Remember when you asked me to teach you how to make these origami paper balloons? It took me months before we actually sat down and made them together. Gosh….you all got so good at making them and you wanted to learn more paper folding techniques afterwards. I regret taking so long to teach you. I was always so tired and busy, I always said “we will do it another time”. Looking back, I wish I made more time to make more memories with you while you were little. Life rushes by and you are all growing up so fast. And so, this painting represents the next life lesson - not only for you but for me as well, to remember to take the time to make these memories. No matter what life throughs at us and however tired I might be, I will put always put in the extra effort for you all. I might take a few goes before I do it constantly, so please nag me like crazy to make sure I keep my words to you. Love always, Mum xo.
