Katie M. Berggren "4 Loves"

Katie M. Berggren
"4 Loves"  
This artist was born May 18th 1978. Berggren has been cited as the #1 Motherhood artist in America. Her paintings and prints hang in homes of families in 57+ countries. This painting was actually painted as a surprise holiday gift. The statement for this piece was family and love and was given to a friend with two small boys who was a collector of her work. This photograph is now only offered as a print. I chose this piece because it shows the love a family has for each other. The background is dark and and puts significance on the bodies featured. The flowing of the hair and the expressions on the faces show a sense of softness, nurture and happiness. I like the use of white in this painting it makes the entire painting flow yet stand out. The Husband and wife are looking into each other eyes in admiration and love holding the two children that they created. I chose this photo because it symbolizes family and love. Family love is an intense bond that is like no other.
