Its Mother's Day; so here's a great painting by Caroline Walker (from Mothering, an exhibition recently at the Hepworth, Wakefield & now at the Pallant House Gallery) called Night Feed.

This seems to me to encapsulate both the dedication of mothers, and the exhaustion that often comes with the dedication.

To mothers everywhere, I salute you.

Mermaids Artist: Deborah Kelly This artwork is made from paper collages depicting mythical beings based on ancient stories of human-fish hybrids: sirens, tritons, mermaids and some as-yet-unnamed species of merfolk. They swim, socialise, hunt, court and play in a magical waterworld shared with local populations of the fragile Sydney Harbour ecosystem: a seahorse, starfish, seaweed and a seadragon, photographed by Richard Ling. Fish and plankton can be glimpsed too. There’s a wobbegong, pufferfish, flathead, garfish, cephalopods, crustacea, and a lost tropical fish swept up in a cyclone thousands of kilometres north and carried by unruly currents. Included is a rare sighting of the artist’s favourite animal, the hard-to-believe silver-and-cerulean glaucus, who comes from where the east wind blows and eats the blueness from bluebottles. You’ll spot sponges and shells, scallops, shrimp, an especially fancy crab and eggs of many species, holding the future tight.
