I think they are called tea towels And I don't give a damn if that's what they actually were: to me they are beach towels = summer - sunshine - vacation - fun!

I just checked, and Yes! On your vacation last year you painted your laundry in Fresh Memory! I hope you have a Fresh Memory every year for the rest of your life!!! I just love this, Nancy - the flowers, the light hearted laundry, the clouds, the feeling that life is good and supper will be delicious! Very Lovely painting!!!

Nancy, do you ever air-dry your laundry back in the Netherlands? I feel so nostalgic when I see your paintings with laundry flapping in the breeze - I remember playing hide and seek in the sheets that were hanging up to dry!!! Boo hoo - I loved being a little girl in the 50's!!!

NancyvandenBoom In reply to razortire [2006-08-22 05:57:35 +0000 UTC]

yes I do, in my tiny backgarden! The long sheets are the favorite ones ofcourse! Lots of room to hide in!

Oh you are so lucky! There is too much mold in the air here for me to dry clothes out of doors now.

My wife and I would love to visit there but, alas, we are too ancient now. (Also haven't the necessary cash)! But it's a magnificent painting.

Your painting is as fresh as the laundry flying in the wind I love it, as much the last year's Fresh Memory. You're lucky you have a personal...photog with you;D

Yay 12345! just like me And you're welcome for the comment and the fav I like the sight of fresh laundry flying under the and this drawing depicts that well...I also like the shadow of the pedestrian crossing sign

NancyvandenBoom In reply to milbisous [2006-08-22 05:52:26 +0000 UTC]

I can tell you what a wonderful view it was to look up at that flying laundry! In combination with the feeling on being on holiday.....being happy, that is something!
The pedestrian crossing sign has a special meaning since Cor was lost for an hour and kept walking and running in search for Roos and me....(late in the evening when it was dark.....)

milbisous In reply to NancyvandenBoom [2006-08-22 15:28:54 +0000 UTC]

Great you captured those wonderful feelings of yours during that moment to immortalize your stay there. Just wonderful! And poor Cor must have had so much concern for you and the lovely young Roos.
