The Blues


Enough already...the shed is becoming a star in its own right! A coat of 'midnight blue' turned many heads today on the allotment. A working party of six men, building a new section of fencing (to keep the deer out) used my painting as a distraction and gossiping topic. "Blue for a shed, it should have been Barbie Pink, they are four girls". After the first few strokes the midnight colour was even more startling and I though we might be thrown off the site for breaking some parish law or allotment ettiquette! I made a dash for it after one coat. Let's see how many raised eyebrows and committee minutes the Blue Shed attracts....!!

  1. it's less a shed and more modern art. I'm torn between Yves Klein 'blue (shed) number 66' or Warhol's 'Shed in Blue - Once'

  2. that comment is evidence of how culturally advanced we allotment people really are!
