Original Artwork, in Acrylics & Oils.
In the depths of the night, a Dryad traverses a dense, ominous forest astride her loyal companion, a Badger accustomed to her distracted state. Lost in the captivating narrative of a book, her focus veers away from the surrounding woods, ensnared entirely by the enthralling tale within her grasp.
Truly, she is consumed, truly “Lost in a Good Book.”
Thankfully, The Watcher, ever vigilant, dispatches Luna moths to illuminate their path, guiding lost souls, whether entangled in the pages of a book or the labyrinth of a forest.
A curl in the picture’s corner hints at the turning of another page, evoking childhood tales rich with adventure and accompanied by intricate maps. The inclusion of Anglo-Saxon runes adds depth to the scene, their relevance woven into the fabric of the narrative.
But ponder this: are we merely observing a corner of a book’s page, or is the Dryad conjuring us in her dream? Could it be that everything we perceive is but a dream within a dream?
Perhaps we are the authors of our own stories, navigating the chapters of life and flipping through its pages with each passing moment.
Throughout my journey as an artist, I’ve tried various surfaces & colours… From acrylics on boxed canvas to the refined oils on board I now employ. Each combination wields a distinct influence over the final outcome. Canvas imbues a rustic charm, its weave adding texture. For intricate details, only oil on board suffices, offering subtle nuances and unmatched ability to blend.
Yet, my attention extends beyond the artwork itself; the frames for Original Artworks hold equal significance. Through experience, I’ve learnt how a well-selected frame can elevate a piece, sometimes even reshaping its interpretation. Every choice, from canvas to frame, is a deliberate step towards crafting not just art, but an experience.
