This is the wonderful work of artist Eveleen Murphy, who I used to share a studio with in the Backwater
Artists Group, and who I collaborated with in the Half and Half Opposites exhibition. Her exhibition I heart, he hearts was one of the most magnificent
exhibitions I have ever seen. I love the vitality in Eveleen’s work, and her bold
sense of colour – some colours shouldn’t work, but they do, and this gives them
an offbeat uniqueness which is fascinating.
My boyfriend once gave me a gift of the picture above – a complete surprise, and he selected my
favourite painting from the series! Some time after this I discovered it was
called ‘Broken Flamingo’, which proved it was meant to be!
