dining room in the silver care center near my village

Since last year when my mother(93) had begun to stay at the Seodaemun district silver care center I had not sketched even one there. Three weeks ago I drew a piece at the dining room in the morning when I went with some food for her. Because it locates near my village I go often. The shining light seen through the window made me spread the sketchbook and painting gears. While I was drawing this, mother moved to the table near the window. All the while I was painting it I kept wondering what she was thinking about. Fragmentary memories, family members she had cared all her long life, her husband passed away two years ago, her last daughter who is living in foreign land…..might be.
