Faces in the sun – hands in the dirt
This painting was inspired by that lovely feeling when you go into the garden at the first showing of sunshine after the winter. As you work in the garden it uncurls the tension to feel the sun warm on your face even as your hands touch the cool earth. Acrylic on board. 30 x 30cm SOLD
