Enchanted Brook
âïž Let this painting's story â touch your own
From My Personal Journal
Â
I didnât plan this one. It arrived like a memory.
I remember standing in the studio, staring at the finished painting. And instead of analyzing it, I just⊠smiled. Something about it pulled me inwardâback to a time when the world felt magical. When everything was alive with possibility.
The moonlight gliding across the brook. The deep turquoise waters flowing like a quiet song. The stones, nestled in curves that led somewhere I couldnât quite see. It felt like a place I had known as a childâeven if it never truly existed.
I didnât want to paint a scene. I wanted to paint a feeling. That quiet wonder from when I believed the world was good. When I thought hidden doors led to secret worlds. When flowers glowed at night and the forest listened.
The golden arch emerged without intentionâas if the painting itself wanted to frame the magic. It became a doorway. A gentle reminder that we can still choose to enter wonder, even now.
The lotus flowers rose around the stream like lanternsâsoft, luminous, reaching. I painted them to feel like protectors. Like guides. Their colors werenât from nature exactly, but from memory. From a place where imagination was still sacred.
I called it Enchanted Brook, not because it belongs in a fairytaleâbut because it reminded me of a truth I used to believe without question: that beauty could be found anywhere. That stillness held answers. That somewhere just out of view, magic was real.
Maybe when you look at it, youâll see your own hidden place.
Or maybe youâll just feel something gentle wake up inside youâ
âthat soft knowing that the world is still beautiful. You just have to remember how to look.

My journey as an artist
...didnât start the way one might expect!
Â
I began not with brushes and paint, but as a single mother raising two beautiful daughters after the devastating loss of my husband at a young age.
My girls were just 7 and 12 at the time, and with no choice ...but to press forward.
I spent the next 25 years waiting tables.
Though life was challenging, my love for my daughters gave me strength and the dream of becoming an artist, something I had held in my heart since I was a child, stayed with me quietly in the background.
It wasnât until I retired and met Ian, during what I now call my golden years, that I finally had the time and space to pursue that long-held dream.Â
Â
Â
In 2022...
Ian and I set out to create beautiful paintings and the finest quality limited-editions, driven by a desire to make my self-taught art accessible to all.
We want people to experience the beauty of art
...without breaking the bank.
Now, with Ian by my side, I embraced the creativity I had kept hidden for so long, sharing it in a way that allows others to bring a piece of that journey into their own homesâaffordable, yet meaningful.

Why Size Choice Matters
Choosing the right art print size is more than a design decisionâitâs an emotional one.
It shapes how your room feels, how the artwork speaks, and how connected you become to the space around you.
Here are 9 compelling reasons why selecting the right size matters:
-
Visual Harmony and Balance
Proportion is everything. A properly sized piece brings cohesion to the room and prevents visual clutter or imbalance. -
Focal Point
The right size turns your artwork into an anchorâdrawing attention, creating purpose, and giving the space direction. -
Enhanced Ambiance
Bigger pieces can add drama and presence. Smaller ones create intimacy and calm. Choose what your space is trying to say. -
Personal Expression
Size helps your art speak clearlyâwhether itâs a whisper of elegance or a bold declaration of personality. -
Proportional Alignment
Too small, and it disappears. Too large, and it dominates. The right fit respects the roomâand your eye. -
Practical Considerations
Artwork should live comfortably in your spaceâwithout blocking outlets or overwhelming the layout. -
Complementary DĂ©cor
A well-sized piece doesnât competeâit completes. It ties your furnishings, colors, and themes into a unified whole. -
Artwork Appreciation
Size affects how deeply you can engage with the details, texture, and emotion embedded in each brushstroke. -
Long-Term Satisfaction
Get it right once, and youâll enjoy it for years. No regrets. No rehangs. Just lasting satisfaction.
In short, size isnât just a measurementâitâs a mood setter, a statement, and a silent storyteller.
So whether you're unsure how a piece will look, or you just need a second opinionâŠ
