Shakia draws inspiration from the profound and intimate bond between mother and child. With pops of delicate light blue and gentle pink, interwoven with subtle accents of dark black and gray, this composition captures the beauty and complexity of this cherished relationship.
At the heart of the canvas, a sense of maternal tenderness is palpable. Soft and flowing brushstrokes create an abstract yet unmistakable representation of a mother and child, their forms merging seamlessly. The light blue and pink hues symbolize the nurturing and unconditional love shared between them, while the dark black and gray accents hint at the depth of their connection.
Shakia now a mother of 2 often explores how the loss of her paternal grandmother shortly after childbirth has affected her experiences with motherhood.
This romantic and whimsical color palette lends itself beautiful to the thick swatches of color and visible brushstrokes. Created lovingly with professional oil paints. Inspired by the poetry of James Baldwin.
