Description

This painting was commissioned in 2010 by a lady who had viewed my new „Appetite for Colour‟ series

and really loved flowers in her hair but felt it wasn‟t exactly what she was looking for.

I altered the size and layout of the painting to suit what the client wanted and choose the colours to

compliment the clients living room colour scheme.

Client Testimonial:

" Got my first painting today from Anne Ellard art, I absolutely love it, its so unique and different, would so

recommend her for anyone wanting a painting, and I plan on it being the first of many..."
