I’ve been designing new cards for Mother’s Day. Keeping with the nature vibe and pondering what it means to be a good mother, I have given these animal mothers crowns.
When I visited the Andy Warhol exhibition in Dublin recently, I particularly loved a collaborative painting he did with Jean Michel Basquiat who used crowns in his work. When I looked into it more, Basquiat was inspired by the crowns in Picasso’s work. I had started using crowns more and more in my work and felt I was in good company! This has resulted in a new body of my own work that will be launched in the next few weeks.
So the underlying message in these Mother’s Day designs is to wear your crown with pride 👑 … you deserve it!
