A Series of Watercolour Paintings | Art Works - QMC

1. Pink flowers / window box / wooden shutters with hearts cut through

shade my tender heart

healing will blossom in time – 

roots grow in the dark

1. A courtyard with arched windows. Lush greenery. A wrought iron painted table and chairs – five empty chairs and a jug on the table.

reach out and find your 

loved ones; quench a tender thirst

– five empty chairs wait

1. A single window with a wooden shutter. Mass of rubeckia growing right outside. Big rhubarb type leaves. Red and pink flowers lower down.

cherished lightweight memories

are feather soft petals

1. Inside a conservatory or glasshouse. Doors open onto further doors. Red shrubby lush plants. Paving stones, smooth on the floor.

one step at a time

doors open to further doors – 

you will find the way

1. An ornamental fountain in a tiled space. It’s to look at not to go in. Trees grow outside. You probably need the shade. Streams of water trickle down.

waiting and hoping – 

streams of kindness trickle down

gentle patterned light

1. A cello waits for someone to sit in the chair and play it. The music stand is too high. A patterned rug and amazing house plants. Piles of books. Tall windows. Probably a conservatory.

inside every book

the end of another story

harmony awaits

1. Outside, by a stretch of water. An iron bench with a wooden seat. Tall red flowers and the spreading branches of a low tree. Dappled shade on a hot day. There’s a distant shore.

tales from the far shore

1. A big wicker basket of flowers on a wooden bench. Someone’s cut them from the garden to make the display.

nurture dreams and hope

in every human life 

new petals unfurl

1. A big wicker basket of fruit. Apples or peaches and a pineapple. Next to it some plums and a bowl of strawberries. A small flowering plant grows next to them. There’s a red scarf under. They’re all on the windowsill and the window has a brass finger pull – it's a sash window. 

don’t keep life outside

pull the window open wide  

a warm breeze flows in
