We were recently gifted this painting by my mother who, after a long period of abstention, has finally lifted a paintbrush again. Jolene and I were delighted to receive it, not least of all since it’s a painting of our (and our neighbours) house, it’s based on a photo from a couple of years back and features one of my nephews a long with our wee lad and lass. Of course, all we need to do now is find somewhere to hang it which, given the state of disrepair our home is currently in is easier said than done!!
Typically, the photograph has washed the colours out and no amount of fiddling in the photo editor, with my limited skills, was going to fix that I’m afraid. Still it was a lovely gesture and Jolene and I will be delighted to hang it … just as soon as we have somewhere to hang it!!
