The exuberant colours of teal, violet and blue pop against the turquoise and dusty pinks and of the background - it’s a mesmerising and vibrant colour scheme that’ll radiate positivity through your home.

The painting is signed by the artist Sian Storey on the front and reverse, and will be an exciting addition to your home.

How it was created

‘Rarity' was painted during winter 2024 in Sian Storey’s studio in Hampshire, England - whilst dreaming of tropical climates!

As the one-and-only owner of this original work of art, you’ll be able to appreciate the delicate, detailed brushwork and hazy mists of spray paint. Look closely, and you'll see painterly textures and brushstrokes - something photos just can't do justice.

Sian paints in layers, building up layers of paint as she goes. The spray paint is used to diffuse edges and lines, creating an ethereal finish.

This painting, your walls

It’s an eye-catching artwork that’ll bring a ‘wow’ to your room, and show off your creative eye to guests.

Hang it in your bedroom for a moment of positivity - the first thing you see in the morning, and the last thing at night. Brighten up your work video calls by hanging it in your home office. Or put it pride of place in your living room, to create a stunning, unique and statement focal point.

It’s easy to hang too - it’s a light painting, and comes with picture wire attached.
