More Artwork ...

Hi Everybody,

If you have been with me for sometime then you will know that my husband Griff died in November 2018, and since then this house has been just that ... a house.

But I am now ready to turn it back into a home for Ruby and me and start adding some colour into my safe place again. I have started doing things to it that I have neglected.

The last major job that Griff did was fitting a new kitchen and it is beautiful. I added a video about that after we had painted the long wall Lime Green

And we where both so happy with it once it was done

You may know that I have recently discovered acrylic paint pouring and this is giving me lots to learn and think about and it is something I am enjoying.  Griff would have loved this artwork as he was always so proud of the oil paintings I did at night school back in 1994.  And yes they where still on my walls all these years later.

But now, in one of my bedrooms, I have done a feature wall and added a group of my own paintings and this is what that room looks like now.

I liked it so much that I decided to do a similar thing in the other bedroom.

I tried some canvases on the wall to see what size I wanted.

And then I turned it from this boring cream wall

... to this, which is deep wine red and matches the bed cover and the curtains to perfection.

And as Griffs two daughters bought me a lot of canvases for my birthday last week I have plenty to keep me occupied.

I have lots of ideas and walls to fill yet so I will be showing you some more as I go along


More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Abstract Painting

Hi Everybody,

I have been branching out in all directions over the past few months and this is another thing that I have tried.

This abstract painting is another one that was inspired by Rinske Douna and I love her work.

I found her on YouTube and she is an amazing, bright and beautiful young woman.

This one sits in my hall and I had it framed professionally in white and it looks lovely.

It is a large white canvas that I bought in a pack of five different sized ones for £4. Absolute bargain and I bought five packs. I wish I had got more though as now they don’t have them anymore (sigh!)

I have many more spots in my house that I can fill with my own artwork and then I will be stuck for where to put it.

There are only so many pieces of art work and only so many walls to use.

It may not be your cup of tea but I really do like it 

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
