Beautiful everyday Ladybird things.
‘Wellington boots’
(And another lovely bit of painting from artist Harry Wingfield)

This one fooled me for a moment. It looks like an photo in an ad in an old magazine.

One of his very best

You can see/feel the texture of the lining compared with the rubber outside.

That is just delightful perfection

I can smell the rubber and feel the part of my shin where those boots would rub. Beautiful hyper realistic artwork. Stunning 😍

And if they get wet inside stuff them with newspaper and they'll only be slightly damp when you put them on again! (Amazing painting!)

Yep, that’s exactly how I remember my wellies, and the sore legs where they used to rub!

Such a stunning picture. My favourite Lady Bird artist. Thanks for sharing.

Perfection in such a simple subject
