Description

A mother and child stand close together beneath a swirling deep blue sky scattered with stars, her arm raised to point something out above. Nicole Martin paints this from her own childhood memory: when she was a child, she had the image of a golden star that would always protect her. This painting shows a nurturing mother taking the time to share her love for her child by venturing out under the night sky to show him My Star. Meanwhile, the cosmos above them spirals and glows in shades of teal and violet, vast enough to hold every constellation a child could imagine. Additionally, the two figures stand small against all that sky, yet completely unafraid, held steady by each other’s presence. This is providing for him an experience that would never be forgotten. What star did someone once point out for you?
