Woman's Work-Artist-Life Balance

Mum

Learning from my essay researching  Linguistic Theory and The  'Maleness of Language'. What I said in my essay influences my art.
"I feel this is true: the idea that many women who are following on from their mothers and mother’s mothers in habit and learning make sense. As a mother we teach our girl children what to expect from life, and that’s less than what boys expect and get: (I have two boys and one girl) my mother taught me “education was not necessary as I would marry and have children anyway!”   Making an informed choice becomes more available with language and attitude change. Women are socially moulded, so we should try as best we can to break free, and demand respect, for what we contribute to society, how we look, feel, think, do, is both made by nature and nurture."
I am now caring for my Mother she is very weak and is an invalide at the moment I live partly with her in Glasgow partly at home in Central region.

Balancing College with Woman's Work!
This photo encompasses the many demands made on a woman, when they venture out into the career world.

 Woman's Work Clothes Horse used here as a metaphor
joining both worlds of work together in a balanced happy day. This is not always easy, as Woman's Work and family demands encroach on a woman's time which can dissolve and stifle energies, 
thought processes, and creativity.
