"My Rainbow Roots" by Lynda Cookson

This painting has long since been painted over! I came across it today and was reminded of the day I painted it. I was so homesick ... I was living in Ireland (which I loved) but am South African born and anyone from anywhere in Africa knows how it gets in your blood, reaches your heart, and just won't let go! I was longing for the bright colours and the smell of dust.

It was an expressive painting but not one which I felt could be sold ... so it hung around for a while, working its therapy, until the day came when I was brave enough to say goodbye and paint over it.
