Acrylic on wood panel, 20 × 30 x 4 cm
Framed size: 22 × 32 x 7 cm
This richly layered acrylic painting is created on a sturdy handcrafted wood panel and finished with three coats of gloss medium to bring out the depth of colour and texture. It’s presented in a hand-sanded meranti float frame, waxed to a soft sheen that complements the work without overpowering it. The final surface is gently taken back with beeswax to a beautiful satin finish that catches the light just right.
Wired and ready to hang straight out of the box.

Plumbago grew at the first house I lived in, in Bermuda just after I got married. It trailed around the patio terrace and I loved the pale blue blossom. I have grown it in gardens ever since. It can become unruly and need a firm hand but I like the fact it grows without structure. The mug was either my Dad’s or my granddad’s. It is possibly something to do with Methodism, but now i am not sure. It was always displayed on the pelmet in our living room at home.
