Finding Peace ii is an original mixed media painting.

This painting was inspired by a poem entitled 'Finding peace thoughts' which was written by my late Grandfather. He was borm in 1908 and saw so many changes in his life time and loved to write poetry about his experiences.

My grandfather typed most of his poems on a typewriter. I have copied his original typed poem and collaged a paragraph of the poem into my painting. This seemed the perfect way to combine the creative work of my grandfather with mine. The painting contains the following paragraph from the painting:

'When there's no one to welcome you,
As you approach your front door,
Your heart becomes heavy,
It's not like home anymore.'

I love colour, texture and meaning and I hope I've captured in this painting.

I have also created 'Finding Peace i' which you can find in my listings. These 2 painting work really well as a pair.
