I would like to make more original fantasy art moving forward, and this is my first real attempt at creating my own magical new world. When I'm free to draw whatever my heart desires, I find myself reaching for my favorite aesthetic: coziness! I have received many comments from collectors and friends, saying they would like to live in this soft, reassuring world. And although escaping feels like such a tempting fantasy, I need to remind myself that everything magical in this scene is borrowed from our real, magical lives. We pet our dog and cat companions, feeling their unconditional love and trust. We share happy moments with our friends and family. We marvel at the beauty of the clouds drifting above. Our lives, right here and now, show glimpses of magic everywhere. I know life can feel heavy and dark sometimes, but I hope we can find the courage to see the beauty, and share it with people (and pets) we love!

NOTE - You can choose between two paper types for your print:

1) Handmade Japanese Paper: Created by the Kikuchi Studio in Ehime Japan, this paper features a lovely mulberry texture and rough deckled edges. The overall effect makes our giclée prints look like real historical Japanese prints. I'm very proud of these!

2) Western Paper: This is a high quality 80 lb cover paper, similar to hot press watercolor paper. My art prints look stunning on its smooth, matte finish. This is the paper I usually bring to conventions, so if you have purchased art from me at a live event, you probably have this paper style.

Every print is signed by the artist.
Measures 12x17 inches.

FRAMING:

This print looks great in a standard 16 x 20 frame (US, Canada) or 40 x 50 cm (everywhere else).

Inside the frame, you can place your print over a sheet of colored paper for a lovely effect. Canson makes textured paper in many colors. It looks great at a low price. Here's a link.
