Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Katherine Lake...My Mom!

What a “Special Day!

Congratulations to “All Mom’s Everywhere!”

I was very blessed to have been raised by one of the most 

fascinating woman I have ever known.

Katherine Lake’s life has definitely been lived!

Her diverse interests in the world provided me a lifetime filled with curiosity.

I can honestly say...”Most of what I learned about life...came from her”.

Her art career has spanned over 70 years and includes working with
some of the largest department stores in the United States as an Advertising Art Illustrator.

She received her first degree in Arts at Michigan State University and when onto
receive her MA in Educational Administration and the Fine Arts.
Many of my friends had my Mother as their educator.
Later, she went on to design spec homes, grocery stores, and remodeling historic homes.

Her life was also filled with raising four children.

 Amy, Melissa, Michael and myself and we now have children of our own.

 All of them are living all over the globe.

In 1979 she started with my father (the love of her life) the “American Bird Galleries”.
Located in New York, Florida and North Carolina.

They launched my art career at their art gallery in NY.
In 1993 they semi retired to the foothills of Northern Georgia.
Two years ago at the age of 89…they completed their last art show.

They now are enjoying their peaceful life.
My Mother has had many other interests over the years.
I asked her once how did she manage it all?
“Organization and simply being fascinated by the World” she responded.
I honor her legacy, talent, creativity, teachings and LOVE & Friendship!
Happy Mother’s Day!
