“The Pink House” is an acrylic painting that has taken many forms, been washed away and added, time and time again. This reflects fragments, or traces left behind. This painting is about my grandmother Dorothy and her her little pink house she shared with me, my Mum and my brother. Our connection was and remains strong .
