Muir

This was Zinnia's last piece with us.  She has moved on now, but will always be remembered through her art.

​

This piece represents the sea.  

The Muir.

The colours and the ever changing surface.

The depths.

The unknown.

​

We were finally allowed to gather for my Uncles goodbye.  It has been months since we lost him, but lockdown stopped us being together.

So we gathered, at last, as a clan and we said a proper goodbye.

We sprinkled his ashes in the sea.

The sea he lived by.

The sea we all grew up by and spent most of our lives swimming in.

It's a huge part of who we are as a family.

​

As his ashes met the Muir, the water turned the most stunning turquoise.

Brighter than I have ever seen it in this country.

I feel like that was his last goodbye to us.

We drank and sang and remembered him.

A true Muir people send off.

​

I was raised of the sea.

It's part of me.
