Here are six paintings inspired by the first series of the dark comedy tv series Flowers, written and directed by Will Sharpe, who also stars as Shun. Flowers escaped my attention when it was first broadcast because, as I discovered when I first watched it when the second series had arrived, my life was very close to the bones of Maurice and, as I was to discover through a recent diagnosis of bipolar type II, Amy. For me, as no doubt it is for many other peeps, it's a beautiful, funny, honest, difficult, heart-wrenching, wonderful story. I have my own thoughts about how the series ended with regards to Shun. I'll only say this: it's a clever and very insightful way to end a series whichever way one looks.
