Time is just flying...it's already May and Mother's Day has arrived! First I'd like to wish all mothers a lovely spring day filled with joy and happy moments with your children and family. May your day be filled with sunshine, laughter and all things bright and beautiful. Mothers make so many sacrifices in their lives for the sake of their children, they truly deserve to be honoured and loved, not only on Mother's Day, but everyday in our lives. 

Here's a fine art photo piece I created to portray the love that mothers give to their children, from before they were born and throughout their upbringing, like the sunshine that nourishes a young seedling and nurtures its growth.

Nourished by the SunA seedling nourished by the sun is like children growing under their mother's love.

As children grow and journey through life, they're influenced by various outside forces, media, and peer pressure, just as plants are subjected to wind and other forces of nature, swaying them every which way in different directions.

Swayed by the Wind

Mothers (and fathers too) provide guidance to their children, helping them grow in ways best suited to their personalities and interests, leading them to be the best version of themselves. 

Guided Growth

Although my dear mother has passed on a few years ago, I am forever grateful for her love and guidance, and remember her fondly especially on this day.

May all mothers enjoy their special day today and be celebrated!
