27. Lee On Solent - Mothers Day Elephants Oil, Acrylic & love on canvas - £1000 45cm x 60cm EVERY PENNY OF THE ORIGINAL ART GOES DIRECTLY TO - YOUR ART CONNECT CIC - Arts For Mental Health Lee-on-the-Solent was a last-minute addition to the tour. My friend Tee, who I had met the previous summer at Into the Wild Festival, asked if I would come and hold an event on the beach there. I thought, what the heck? Let’s do it. And I’m so glad I did. We held the event on the beach at Lee-on-the-Solent, part of the Gosport coastline, and it happened to fall on Mother’s Day. It was probably the windiest event of the entire tour, but that didn’t stop a fantastic turnout of families, mums and children coming together to join us. With it being Mother’s Day, choosing what to paint felt pretty obvious. I painted a mother elephant walking alongside her baby calf, a little celebration of that incredible bond between a mother and her child. Sometimes the events you don’t plan are the ones you’re most grateful you said yes to. Happy Mother’s Day. ❤️ Payment plans available at checkout
