Original artwork description:

A black cat complete this garden view with a window, adding focus and a touch of mystery. Where is this place and how did it come to be taken over by nature? I love the idea of re-discovering abandoned gardens and bringing them back to life. As a child I was captivated by the book "The Secret Garden" - the discovery of the garden and the excitement of restoring it's beauty. I see now the metaphors to the children's lives...

I used acrylic paints, inks and collage. I make my own collage papers by painting on lightweight sheets with layers of professional grade colour. After cutting out shapes with a knife, I glue the pieces onto good-quality paper using archival glue.

Unframed. It comes wrapped in cellophane on a strong board. Flat packed. Suitable for international shipping
