Storm Coming

My painting 'Storm Coming' is now on display at Hastings Museum and Art Gallery until 15th January. My daughter Julia had been struggling with severe OCD which culminated in a week in hospital after she was unable to eat or drink anything due to her intense fears of contamination. It was the most horrendous, frightening time of our lives - with an unseen bully ruling our household and threatening our precious girl's health. Luckily, she is in a much better place now and having treatment which appears to be working well. I started this painting before I knew any of the turmoil that was going on inside her head. Unbeknownst to us, the storm was on its way.
