*********
'Look Deeper' is a miniature, spontaneously painted artwork in shades of Prussian blue, teal, shimmering Interference Blue & Turquoise, mossy green and black and white... It's organically flowing lines and curves are infused and inspired by the artist's deep love of nature and the natural world. Paint and painter take turns leading the way in a genuinely unrepeatable, co-creative process, evolving in a dynamic dance between artist and media, which gently invites the viewer to look beneath the surface and discover hidden details and deeper meaning. The nuances of the completed piece change and shift with the light, imbuing this original mixed media artwork with an interactive aliveness that a print (no matter how faithful or lovely) can simply never hope to replicate.

"I absolutely adore creating these little minis - they are just so much fun to work on. And although they are small, just as much time and love go into painting them as does into my larger works.
This unique 'bookmark orientation' mixed media creation is as gorgeous as it is diminutive - won't take up much room on the wall, but it has a huge personality! Its small size makes it ideal for placing on a shelf, table or dresser, and it also looks great in a collection of other mini paintings such as 'Circling', 'Strands In A Web' or 'Bubbling Under': perfect for gifting, for smaller spaces, or for those seeking affordable original art suited to an evolving collection over time." - Jay
