The elements of this three dimensional piece, subject, background and floral foreground, all came from different sources. Each piece is hand, cut, and layered to create three-dimensional depth and realism. She is looking for magic, so I found an ethereal background that looked as if magic could be found.

Events occur early on in life. Children process these events in different ways and they become overwhelmed. My grandson went through a difficult period in his family that left him sad and withdrawn. I wrote this poem and painting to let him know he would be okay in time, just don?t give up because pups see only today, tomorrow things change and often in ways that surprise us.

The pictures of the house and a girl on the canvas were taken by an iPhone camera. I printed the photo on paper and tore along the edges. Then, I glued it to the canvas. I applied acrylic paint around the photos. During the Victorian era, they had many perennial gardens and decorated their interiors with lots of colored floral wallpaper.
