The oil painting titled "Call Mom" captures a heartwarming and nostalgic moment, featuring a young child reaching up to a public payphone. The child, bundled up in winter clothing—a puffy yellow jacket, blue pants, and a blue knitted hat—is on tiptoes, stretching to insert coins or dial a number on the phone. There is a sense of urgency and determination in the child's posture, highlighted by the outstretched arm and the focused attention on the task at hand. The payphone and the child are set against a backdrop of cool, muted tones that suggest a wintry urban environment, with the presence of snow piled at the bottom of the phone booth reinforcing the season. The child's innocent endeavor to use the phone, a task that likely requires the assistance of an adult, is a poignant reminder of the small challenges and adventures of childhood. It may evoke memories in the viewer of their youth, of times when even the most ordinary tasks seemed like grand adventures. The painting is detailed with a realistic style, capturing the textures of the child's winter wear and the cold metal and plastic of the phone booth. The artist's signature and the year '23 are discreetly placed, indicating the painting's recent completion. "Call Mom" invites viewers to reflect on the simplicity and beauty of childhood, as well as the universal and timeless connection between a child and their mother.
