BATHROOMS.
My new bathroom is getting closer.
They were here today taking measurements.
I’m helping, I’m stripping wallpaper.
I’ve already taken all the old shelves and cabinets down.
I’m also going to paint the ceiling
You can’t imagine how grateful I am.
All I can think about is bathrooms.
The bathroom is my inspiration for Art Sunday today.
This artist has painted a series of ‘bathroom paintngs’

Sorry I'm late commenting, had a busy weekend. Bathrooms? Another subject I wouldn't necessarily have associated with art. I didn't realise so many artists had used it as a subject!!
ReplyDeleteHi Mitch, thanks, I've spent the day stripping the old wall paper off the bathroom. At the moment I'm not thinking of much except my new bathroom so this seemed like the perfect choice.
