Motherhood

When I began painting, my children were just 4 and 5 years old, and my greatest identity to date was being their Mommy. The moment I picked up the brush in 2015, something was ignited in my soul, and I felt compelled to paint any random image that I would find on the Internet. Six months into this journey, I stumbled upon and painted my first mother child painting, and THAT’S when I discovered my voice. With every painting, I saw my children. I saw myself. I saw love. And I just couldn’t stop. When you view any of these paintings, you are experiencing a precious moment deep within my soul.

**Through the Cracks of the Pavement**
This painting is extremely special to me. After being told at 25 years old that I would likely not be able to have children (after a cancer diagnosis), I had two baby girls within 16 months of each other when I was just shy of forty years old. Life had always been a bit of a struggle for me, but once I had my children and learned how to love unconditionally, I pushed *Through the Cracks of the Pavement* to become the goddess that now stands before you.

**Nadia’s Secrets**
Original Artwork by Dana Sardano | **16” x 20”** | **SOLD**

**Fairy Principessa**
Nadia, my little spitfire, she instigates, pokes, prods, and arouses a fiery creativity in me that one could only understand after meeting her. The dichotomy of my work is explained upon understanding the uniquely differing characters of these special little people. Both Nahla and Nadia have introduced me to facets of myself that had lain dormant for so many years, and my love affair with them is why I continue to explore these facets and create such colorful expressions of love and joy.
