Picture a terrace on the Amalfi coast at ten in the morning: lemons still on the branch, a blue porcelain jug, a bowl of fruit and the sea far below. That is this painting, and it smells of summer even in February.
It suits a friend who loves to travel, a sister who cooks, a mother who collects blue china, or anyone who needs a dose of sunshine on their birthday. Any name goes under the heading in bold blue letters, the same color as the porcelain.
Wishes with a little sunshine: “Happy birthday! When life gives you lemons, it is clearly planning a party for you.” Or: “Here is to a year full of sun, sea and long lunches. Happy birthday.”
