The subject this week is 'peeling paint'. We had a little cupboard outside that houses a tap that can be accessed for hosing the garden and one or two other bits. Sadly, the door has become weathered recently and the paint is peeling.

ReplyDeleteThis has worked so well Hazel Isn't it strange how we can look at the peeling paint on the door as something that has been neglected and yet the way you have portrayed it it's really quite beautiful with the textures the colouring and the flowers x
