June 13, 2025BLUE DON’T HIDE, a story of being true to yourself
Blue Don't Hide
I am so happy to get this photo from the owners of Blue Don't Hide, in Balmain, Sydney. They fell in love with it at the "STORIES" exhibition in Kiama, South Coast NSW, and the painting is a perfect fit in their Scandinavian influenced home. The owners tell me how most visitors notice, pause, and comment on it.
I personally also love this painting and am over the moon that it lives in such a loving home.
Thank you, Mane - for sharing the photo. xxx
There is no larger crime than being untruthful to yourself.
(H.D.)
She had blue skin, And so did he.
He kept it hid And so did she.
They searched for blue
Their whole life through,
Then passed right by -
And never knew.
(‘Masks’, unknown)
I am grateful for my collectors.
You are fuelling my creative fires further.
And the fire keeps on burning.
BLUE DON'T HIDE
Is a reminder of being true to yourself.
The metal wire and staples play an important role amongst the painted words and strokes in telling this story - a warning example of the cost of hiding behind a mask.
