Hi. I'm a painter, a writer and a mother of three teenage sons, one with a severe disability. This is a journal: riotously disorganized, full of art, food, children and everyday domestic events. Unless you are a friend or family member you may not be interested, but you are welcome to look. Artists who are parents may find some common ground here, as well as parents of children with special needs. For art only, see my site: nancybeamiller.blogspot.com

Happy Boy
Henry is home on vacation from his special needs school, and so he came with me when I took a few friends to go see my current show at The Episcopal Academy yesterday. As soon as he saw this painting of his younger brother he started laughing merrily and pressing up against it companionably. I missed the perfect shot: Henry leaning in to "kiss" his brother, but I got the merry aftermath. I guess it made Hen happy to see his brother there in that unfamiliar setting.
Really, what higher compliment could an artist/mother ask for?
