Wimbledon - Champion!

Someone remarked to me that whilst I was watching Wimbledon tennis tournament I should paint a crowd scene.

And I thought about it, but thought, its too normal to paint a player or the crowd.. so then, what is synonymous with Wimbledon?

Strawberries and cream!

Then if I was there, eating them - and my man won, they'd be flying through the air as I leapt from my seat to cheer!

So from my wild imagination, that's how this painting came to be.
I had great fun painting this one - it really makes me smile.
Hope it does the same for you :)

Champion!


this painting will be added to my permanent gallery site
