Art is a Labour of Love & I Went into Labour…

I’m both delighted and sad my painting of the bluebell forest at Hallerbos was sold.

Being an artist is a labour of love and I went into labour after doing the initial sketches for this exact painting four years ago!

Technically it took all the years of my child’s life to complete the artistic vision I had that day in the forest.

And Tova Niovi just looked at this photo & said: “You had long hair when I was born and I had short hair then and now you have short hair and I have long hair; I could be YOUR mummy now.”

That’s not how time works, sweetie. But who am I to speak: I measure it in paintings. . .
