This lovely Dublin home was painted for a wonderful woman whose parentsā house has now been sold and is no longer in the family ā but still holds so many memories š
Iāve said it before but I truly adore painting these old homes. The character, the quirks, the slightly wonky details, the stonework, the windows⦠you can almost feel the stories sitting in the walls. Homes like this have such a presence about them. Theyāve seen decades of ordinary little moments that somehow become the big meaningful memories later on.
I especially loved painting all the textures in this one ā the old stone facade, the iron gate, the little plants in the windows. So much charm packed into one house.
Also, little life update š
ā Iām wrapping up orders over the next month because Iām getting my tonsils out in a couple of weeks. Apparently adulthood wasnāt dramatic enough already.
So if anyone has any top-tier recovery recommendations besides surviving exclusively on ice cream, mashed potato and regret, please send them my way š Cold foods, TV binge suggestions, miracle cures⦠Iāll take it all.
Hoping Iāll emerge from it like a brand new woman afterwards āØ
