Painting by SamShow
“The name of the painting is The Moment of Meeting…in Farsi Lahzeye didar (لحظه دیدار)
I drew this painting when I missed my mother and father very much and I imagined myself in a moment when I met them again after a long time and although the world around us is still cold and icy, our presence being together and the moment we met, made our being warm and golden.”

You can see SamShow working on this painting on her Instagram account at https://www.instagram.com/sam.show.art and below, along with some other examples of her work.
​
This is so moving.  Thank you SamShow.  We are privileged to hear the meaning behind this painting and wish you both all the very best for your new life in the UK.
