Old Soul
Watercolour On Trimmed Paper
12.5” x 9.5” custom framed
Inspiration: I was inspired by a traditional gold frame adorned with vintage jewellery. I carefully painted one corner of the ornate frame, trimmed around the edges of the paper and then displayed it in a simple contemporary frame that was customized to the shape of the painting.
I am reminded of my grandmothers jewellery box and adore the delicate balance where nostalgia juxtaposes modern and the old coexists with the new. Feel free to let your memories wander.
SPECIAL NOTE: This painting received an Honourable Mention Award from the CSPWC juried members exhibition, Beyond The Edge, 2021 and will be sold with the agreement to allow use of this painting for future showing purposes.

Quality: Original paintings are meant to last longer than a lifetime, so I invest in high quality materials. I use top of the line professional grade paint and paper. Beyond that, I have researched the colours of my palette to ensure that they are lightfast and permanent, making longevity a priority. Each painting is signed on the back of the painting and with an embossed signature on the front. The subtlety of the embossed watermark identifies the originality of each piece and maintains a focus on the artwork itself rather than the signature.
Frame: The FRAME is part of the ART. This watercolour is painted on paper and carefully trimmed into a unique shape, so naturally the frame is customized to each shape and size. This is a labour intensive process. The edges of the painting need to be flush with the frame to create an illusion. Measurements, cuts and mounting are required to be precise. The painting is float mounted on a white mat background which means you can see the edges of the paper and a drop shadow, bringing a 3 dimensional perspective to the work. The custom frame protects the painting under anti-reflective glass which means you won’t see any distracting reflections. Also, alongside the permanent paints I use, the UV protective coating on the glass acts as double protection from fading due to exposure to sunlight. This painting is framed in a simple white frame with clean edges to create a fresh modern look.
