Special Others: Doris Day


Today I would like to share with you an original Doris Day painting 'Floral Fantasy'. I love it for the texture in the flowers, which reminds me of Vincent Van Gough's 'Sunflowers'.

This painting proudly hangs in my lounge room and was created by my very talented artist grandmother Doris Day. Grandma has been painting for more than 35 years and describes herself as a 'contemporary modernist painter' and at 91 years young she is still painting.

Ever since I was a little girl, Grandma encouraged me to draw, paint and enjoy art, and I always think of her when I pick up a pencil to doodle in my sketchbook.
