It was just a matter of time. I turned my back on the Fine Art world before I had ever really given it a chance. I was 21. I was heading down the horticultural road and leaving Fine Art far, far behind.
……..it has caught me up.
My exhibition is going up in just a few days. My first exhibition in 15 years.
Of course horticulture was always going to be my subject; flowers are my muse.
My beautiful daughters are my inspiration. I see them experimenting with art materials and I join them. I am relishing discovering art all over again.
For this exhibition (my comeback – how exciting!) I am bringing flowers dramatically to the fore by sketching in the darkest of midnight-blue backgrounds.
I know not what to expect.
I will not stop. The Fine Art road and the Horticultural road have merged. I am travelling along and enjoying the ride 🎨💚🌻
