Oil on canvas

Artist’s Statement
“A Mother’s Heart,” is an 11” x 14” original oil painting on canvas that I created this year while thinking about the World Health Organization’s theme for World Patient Safety Day centered around safe maternal and newborn care. It is inspired by and in honor of a friend who lost her baby at birth this year. The painting will be auctioned off online on September 17 during the 2nd annual #uniteforsafecare campaign: https://patientsafetymovement.org/unite-for-safe-care/home
to benefit the Patient Safety Movement Foundation’s work in making healthcare safer and more reliable. ©2021 Monica McDade, all rights reserved.
