You are my sunshine...

Every time I travel back to my childhood home, I discover something new and it usually revolves around my mother. She is a woman to be reckoned with, a woman who does not sit still for long...a woman with an art gallery. She has had many over the years. They generally stay within the same location, but they take on different shapes and sizes each time I visit. I have to say, her most recent venture is probably my favourite and that says a lot because this gallery business has been going on for as long as I can remember.

If you happen upon my mother's art gallery...I think many of you would find something to inspire. What you see on Monday could be totally different on Tuesday. She is always moving, changing, decorating...she never loses sight of her creativity. Seeing that I get back every few years, I enjoy photographing her gallery as a keepsake of my visit. I know my mother, what I see this trip will be very different the next time I am in town.

With that in mind, I thought I would share a few pics....

If you are the crafty type, there are plenty of ideas to contemplate.

I have my eye on the seashell collection below.. (wink, wink to Mom).

 I love this gallery for the window below...there are three windows 

along this little studio in her gallery, all looking out to sea. 

Her faithful dog, Muffin, is always at her side.

 A paper mache paper lantern...have a think on that one. 

If you could create your own, what would you choose to enhance it?

Every corner of the room has something of intrigue.

Dance in the rain? Why not?

A note attached to a ribbon on the door above.

There are messages everywhere...her spirit is true.

My favourite of all..outside her studio window, for all to see...

Like mother, like daughter...I am passing the same message on to you.

YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE!

Thank you for visiting and reading along! 

:)

You can find my mother's sunshine and more...

 in the Rocky Neck Art Colony...here.
