Sunshine on a Rainy Day

I painted ‘Sunshine on a Rainy Day’ as a gift for my boss who was retiring.

‘You believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself…’

He was such a kind boss and really cared about the children and his staff. It’s a painting of the school we worked in. The iconic symbol of the rainbow brings the promise that the troubles of today will surely come to pass. Hold strong in your vision and the rainbow will bring fresh beginnings and new prosperity. The end of the rainbow signifies a pot of gold and the magic that surrounds your dreams coming true. The 2 children in the foreground are holding hands reflecting the nurturing ethos of the school. I put seagulls in the playground as that’s what you always see after break and lunch with all the food that gets dropped by the children. The windows in the school are colourful like the rainbow to show the happiness within. For some children school is the most stability they have in their lives and their only safe place to be. The hearts in the bushes represent love.

Is there someone who believed in you when you were at school?
