A mildly decadent scene of domestic bliss?

Of course there’s nothing wrong with doing the washing up dressed only in your underwear, but you have to be careful in these modern houses with no front garden. Passers-by tend to stare in at you and Mr and Mrs Nosey Neighbour don’t seem too amused.

When I first exhibited this picture (in a smaller format) one viewer remarked: 'Oh I see, the in-laws have turned up unexpectedly?' I like that interpretation better than my own!

I couldn’t resist the title, by the way, although I admit it’s not THAT dramatic. More of a soap opera really.

Sorry, this artwork was sold in April 2017.
