Glow Painting - Hidden Secrets
A girl, a lantern, violet coloured dusk. By daylight, it all looks normal. But once the room goes dark, the lantern does what lanterns secretly long to do: it shows you what’s really there. Fairies. Small, glowing, and very much the kind that hide until humans aren’t looking.
As a teenager I was a big fan of the Cottingley Fairies story. They were were a series of photos taken in 1917-1920 by cousins Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths, which appeared to show real fairies photographed in the garden, but were really a hoax created with paper cutouts. I remember reading about them in a photography magazine. Adults at the time were convinced the girls had managed to photograph real fairies and its has been said that everytime someone says they don't believe in fairies, somewhere a little fairy dies. So be careful! :)
I'm loving this new series, stayed tuned for many more. Intensely coloured painted elements on a clean white canvas background. With glow in the dark surprises that only come to life after dark.
No US tariffs on Original Art. Yay!!!
