Description
War of the Roses – Owd Lasses Signed Giclée Art Print
Yorkshire Rose and Lancashire Rose became neighbours in the summer of 1979, when Tom’s job brought him over from the wrong side of t’Pennines.
Yorkshire Rose loved gardening and soon got chatting over the fence to her new neighbour. Before long, the two women had bonded over motherhood, tennis club duties, Robert Redford and all the little things that turn neighbours into lifelong friends.
They remained inseparable for years.
Then came the WI event.
One disputed family recipe for pickled cabbage later, the friendship went spectacularly off the rails.
Neither woman has been able to face a hotpot since.
War of the Roses is part of my Owd Lasses collection — narrative paintings inspired by Northern women, everyday lives, old friendships, family stories and the humour tucked inside ordinary moments.
