Open Arms

Open Arms captures a moment between mother and child, where love, protection, and connection intertwine in the simplest of gestures. The figure’s large, expressive face, framed by bold, soft shapes, evokes the intensity of a mother’s emotional world. The mother’s expression, a mixture of contemplation and love, reflects the complexity of motherhood: a balance between care, worry, and the deep joy found in nurturing.
