Continuing on with my series its interesting to see how the colour is changing from piece to piece. Each piece is also getting narrower at this point until 9 inches wide then I will begin enlarging them back to a full 24 inches wide. It will be interesting to see how this evolves.

Onto the prompt of restoration I was thinking about buildings and objects then I thought of relationships. In my family two of my mothers sisters did not talk to each other for many years and never mended that relationship before one of them died which is very sad.

I had an incident with one of my brothers some years ago which was a misunderstanding but I ensured before we left we mended that relationship (and its still going strong) before leaving. I took what had happened with my aunties and wanted to make sure that didn’t happen again. It takes time to work through the various iterations of what caused an argument or misunderstanding but when you take the time to do that in a constructive way the understanding and relationship can mend.

My colours are around emotion and the trials of getting to the whole. Take care everyone and remember that people are important, there are differing views but we should be able to accept our differences and move on.
