Artist Statement
This piece I created while pregnant with my second baby last year. It was quite complicated for me to paint – as I grew bigger, and the picture is not very small. But I was so full of emotions, various feelings and hormones!
This painting depicts how strong of a woman i felt – being ready to help another human being to come to this world, to love him, to get myself ready to accompany him during his life, be helpful and become responsible for his life. But on the other hand, how fragile I felt to have a very little baby inside me and to keep it constantly safe for such a long time…
I wish all women dare to be a mother. It lightens my life and makes it stunning now that I know.
