Mother and Child

Jason Oliva

2004

acrylic on canvas

Private collection Chicago, Ill.

“Mother and Child” was a  commission that I received in 2004.  Above is the painting hanging in our NYC apartment before it was collected and flown to Chicago where it was given as a gift  by a husband to his wife on her first Mother’s day. The commission came about after he saw my ABN AMRO commissioned painting  “Two Traders” hanging in their NYC office. I received a call asking me how I felt about the theme “Mother and Child” and would I like to paint a picture for his wife…I am always excited by classical themes and enjoyed every minute of creating this painting.
