Happy Mother’s Day to all you mother’s out there – Mom’s are the best, aren’t they?

Thinking of all of you who no longer have their mom here on earth. This is a day of memories and cannot be easy for sure.

Also thinking of those of you who are expecting, I’m sure these are exciting times, know you are blessed!

I am so thankful for my mom, she’s the best – she’s funny, smart and cool! If I were a mom, I would be just like her ;)

Also thankful for Fred’s mom, she’s such a wonderful lady, so sweet!!

Best wishes for health and happiness!

The painting above was done by Pamela Gatens. Pamela’s work is so happy! Thank you Pamela for sharing the Featured Artist post with Mother’s Day!

Read a bit about Pamela from her website, and check out her work!

I paint nearly every day, and when not painting, I am gazing, studying or dreaming about it. Painting on canvas is all about color, freedom and problem solving. I thoroughly enjoy the abstract structure of all paintings. To me, the beginning structure is the most exciting part. No other activity gives the fulfillment that painting does.

Working in acrylic and watercolor, Pamela is a prolific painter and entertaining teacher. She is also a Signature Member of the West Virginia Watercolor Society. She sells her work at The Greenbrier Hotel & Resort, online with Carleton Varney, and at Tamarack in Beckley, WV. Her line of cat and floral cards have been best sellers for years. Pamela lives in Hillsboro, WV with her husband Pat, dog Barker, and cats Pokey and Mack.
