This is a really a buried Treasure it is from 2009..One of first post when I started my Blog..I am still taking care of my Mom and it is still a blessing to have her with me..Even though her mind and memory is slipping away from her..Which makes me so sad and I am trying to treasure every moment of each thought she can still remember.
Thank you Seth for doing this again..It makes us look back and find all those treasures we have forgotten and also to see so many wonderful artists. So if you have not been to his blog..Please do so you will be in for a treat.. http://www.thealteredpage.blogspot.com/
This piece I have done is a 9/12 on canvas.. It is done in all acrylic with a top coat of gloss varnish. The Title is called Shattered.. The reason because of the mind either due to disease or of age the pieces become shattered and the brain can not be repaired and become whole again. So it will always be a search. Looking for the pieces, small or large of your life.Thank you Seth for doing this again..It makes us look back and find all those treasures we have forgotten and also to see so many wonderful artists. So if you have not been to his blog..Please do so you will be in for a treat.. http://www.thealteredpage.blogspot.com/

Oh your so beautiful and your mom, who I've always thought looks amazing for her age.
What a tribute and beautiful blog post to share all they way back to your first sharing. This is so important to everyone you touch. Thank you so much! So nice to go back with you to this time and be with you now!
HUGS!
Such a lovely tribute. Very beautiful.
This painting conveys what you are seeing and feeling daily as you care for your mom. Thank you for sharing Katelen.
Nice to visit you again:) I love your header. Your words are so wise, I wish we could all approach situations like yours with the grace and love you have.
buried treasures, what a lovely thing to call old memories. Your piece is wonderful and holds lots of feeling.
sending light to your mother and you.
Katelen, thank you for sharing this lovely visual depiction of a touching and personal story. The painting is gorgeous.
What an amazing depiction of what it means to you to care for your mother. I too had to care for my mother... to the end... with her slipping away more each day. They're still the same person, the one you love with all your heart. Deep down she knows that you're caring for her.. as hard as it can be at times it will fill your heart later.
Beautiful thoughts and contrasts of the mind with buried treasures. Glad to have found your blog on Seth's posting. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about your mom. She's so lucky to have you!
Treasure all those memories. Lovely post.
This disease is so hard on both the recipient and the caregiver. You have found a perfect post and the painting is gorgeous and beautifully represents photos I have seen of the brain filled with Alzheimer's.
Wonderful words to go with a 'wonderful' image. Treasured memories are always a good thing.
Katelen,
Your piece is visually a whole world just waiting to be dove in-to and explored! What a blessing to be able to care for your mom. I can see from her beautiful and light-filled face why she has your heart!
Thanks for your blog love!
~magick and many blessings to you~

Beautiful and emotional work :-) You and your mom are very inspiring. Glad I found you on the treasure hunt!
your art is beautiful Katelen...but the depth of meaning beneath it equally so. Sending healing prayers your way.
such a wonderful touching painting ... and your words with it make it all complete ! I believe that the best works of art are the 'true ones' the ones that really express what you feel .... thank you...
