every fairy tale can be true if you choose to believe in it ❤  remember when all those fantasy stories inspired a feeling of magic + that anything was possible?  you can have that reminder every single day with this painting on your wall.  

I started painting  on black backgrounds as a way to remind you that even in the darkest time, good things are blooming.  there is always something positive to cling to--a light in the darkness.  something to keep you hoping.  my son, Henry, says they are like neon signs--shining in the dark 😍

Mermaid on a black background -- this painting is inspired by folk art as well as my previous floral collections 😍  From chamomile to peonies to bluebell-type-things to strawberries to sunflowers... well there's just a lot of fun happening here, including brown + gold glitter in the sunflower centers. I hope you love him!!  This painting pairs perfectly with several other paintings in the shop.

This is a 12 x 16" painting on paper.  It has been varnished.  Frame not included.

this painting is designed to remind you that even in the darkest time, good things are blooming.  there is always something positive to cling to--a light in the darkness.  something to keep you hoping.  my son, Henry, says they are like neon signs--shining in the dark 😍

please note that the vibrant colors and also the black are surprisingly hard to photograph!!   If you are seeing little white dots or things that don't look right--its just my photography light reflecting off of the black.
