This is a scene from the kitchen of the old Hobson home place which is over 200 years old and still stands on our farm here in North Carolina. Of the many times I have been in the room, I have often wondered what life must have been like for the generations who have lived here over the years. From the old wooden cabinets with their glass handles and dry sink to the view of cows and stream through the window, this room exemplifies a much simpler place in time. This is not to say that life was easier then. But, it was much less hectic than today. Here, there are memories of families who farmed the land working in the fields together, of Mom's home cooking and hand made clothes. A way of life that may all too soon be forgotten; therefore, I have tried to recreate the look and feel for the life that was once here in the abandoned room.
This task was done with the help of my Mother and several antique kitchen wares that were handed down to her from her grandmother and now to me. Mother is such a great cook that I asked her to make one of her delicious apple pies in grandma's pan to complete the scene. Of course my family and I could not hardly wait to get the pictures taken to do this painting. So we could eat the pie (and a delicious pie it was.)
This painting is a tribute to the vanishing farm family and to Mother's great cooking!
As an added note, my Mother passed away on May 2, 2004 making this painting even more dear to me.
