Sally Harrison's 'The Hideway'

Sally Harrison "The Hideway"

This painting was created by Sally Harrison. It is called "The Hideway". I believe it is very beautiful and it looks peaceful and quiet. I Think she first painted the background of the picture, then painted things in the front and then finally dotted the plants and sky for a 3D effect!

I think she purposly used colours that make you feel a bit more soothed. I say this because when I see this picture I think of having a nap. Not because it is boring but because it reminds me of sleeping in the sun in the garden in peace and quiet.

I believe the story behind this is a little house in the bush with flowers and a beautiful garden that she may have lived in or seen before. She may have grown up here or this may be her or a friend's house!
