Evelyn Kain - You’ve Got a Friend

You’ve Got a Friend 

Written by Carole King, 1971

Fabrics and embroidery threads

Evelyn Kain

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am, 

I’ll come running to see you again.

The isolation of the Covid Era and nostalgia for the Before Times makes many of us long for the assurance of warm, deep, loyal, long- lived friendships.

Australian Aborigine painting inspired the embroidered ovals. They bring me back to when my son Nico and his friends, Tom, Pete and Joe, were inseparable, as only kids in early grade school can be.
