Original artwork description:

'One Day In Grandma's Garden' is a enchanting, romantic and very shabby chic original painting
that is inspired by my great grandmother, who grew flowers and herbs to make remedies to cure minor illness, she was also the village midwife and ' wise woman' !!

She knew her plants great Grandmamma
She grew them all in lines
Some to cure the colic
Some to cure the mind
A plant to make your hair shine
Nettle is it's name
Growing in wild places
Best gathered in the rain
Sweet bergamot for colds and flu
with feverfew and thyme
Dandelion and burdock
Queen Anne's lace and lime

And the people came from miles around
To buy a cure maybe
Would she tell them more that day
Ahhh that depends what she might see !

The artwork comes in a vintage frame which has been given a new lease of life, painted in a matte pale lavender to compliment the colours in the painting. The flowers also contain a few pearls ( Sorry they are not real)
You just know it would look vintage in the ladies chamber !!

Materials used:

Acrylic paint/mixed media glaze and pearls
