Sisters in the Kitchen – Mixed Media Collage with Original Poem
This richly layered mixed-media artwork brings a lifetime of shared stories to life. Built around an original poem by Suzi McHone, the piece captures an intimate moment in a well-worn kitchen—sisters gathered around a table, trading memories, laughter, and truths only family can hold.
The poem is printed on crinkled, weathered paper that looks as if it’s been pulled straight from a treasured drawer, its texture echoing the passage of time. Surrounding it are hand-cut, hand-painted collage figures, textured walls, and vintage-inspired patterns that evoke the warmth of old linoleum floors, screen doors, and afternoon light.
Every layer—distressed edges, subtle color washes, ephemera fragments—adds depth and narrative, making the viewer feel as though they’ve stepped into a remembered moment. Framed in a deep black vintage-style frame, the piece becomes both artwork and heirloom: a tribute to sisterhood, kitchen-table confessions, and the heartmaps we carry forward.
Perfect for:
• Lovers of nostalgic or narrative art
• Gifts for sisters and family
• Mixed-media and collage collectors
• Anyone drawn to warmth, memory, and storytelling in visual form
