Patrick Rainbow

Patrick Rainbow, our newest house, it is all about the colours – of course - but it’s also a celebration of Pride in Newfoundland and Labrador, with most of the colours of the rainbow reflected in the window and door trim. This piece is inspired by a home on Patrick Street that belongs to Lyly Fortin, who works in the film and TV industry. Originally from Quebec, Lyly vacationed here in 1985 and fell in love with St. John’s. She still hasn’t left. And what inspired her to paint her house in this way?

“I just love the colours,” she says. “They cheer me up. So I decided to have some fun with it. Many people stop outside to photograph the house and some do their wedding photos in front. It always makes them smile, and that makes me happy too!”

Patrick Rainbow was designed with Pride in mind but it’s made for everyone. And it will shine as part of your current Jellybean Row collection.
