On our walk today we saw this gallery of paintings attached to the railings in front of a house.

Gallery of art works

Done by a child, there were several pictures of rainbows and a poster wishing passers-by a “Happy Easter”.

I have seen similar displays in other streets though they are more usually attached to the front windows. This row of houses is set well back from the street, though, separated from it by a large front garden. The artist obviously realised that pictures stuck to the window would not be visible from the street and so placed them on the railings instead.

If ever I catch sight of the artist, I will thank her or him for the kind thoughts expressed. In the meantime, I shall try to carry the colourful rainbows with me in my thoughts to help keep up my spirits.
