What is Mummy Not?

What is Mummy Not? – Sea Life Series

Every great piece of art has a story. This one starts with my two children, a school run, and the age-old parental struggle of being handed absolutely everything at once — lunch box, school bag, coat, and whatever else Marcie and Bowie could find.

After one too many armfuls, the running joke became: “I’m not an octopus, you know!” And from that moment of chaos and laughter, this painting was born. Now, whenever the kids hand everything over at once, the answer is always the same — “What is Mummy not?” “An octopus!”

Bold, textured and impossible to ignore, this piece brings the raw power and personality of the octopus to life in a blaze of yellow, amber and deep ocean blue. A work that commands attention — and always raises a smile.
