Repunzel's Window

"Repunzel's Window"
10" x 20"
I created this painting for an upcoming exhibit at the Cape Cod Art Association entitled "A Breath of Spring". I think this painting is more a "tornado" of spring, but it's hard not to get carried away with flowers. I wanted a fairy tale quality, something a bit otherworldly.  I tried to keep the colors bright and clean and yet there's a darkness under it all...rather like the Brother's Grimm. The painting size and shape hopefully makes you think of a castle tower.  The flowers are white like innocence, but then again, they might grab you and eat you up!

  1. Yes! I can certainly see the fairytale quality.A high window surrounded by lush flowers and growth. What could be behind that window?? This is truly magical!
