‘My Secret Garden’ poem
I have a little garden inside me,
A secret little garden,
Where fairies and goblins dwell,
And the birds and the bees swell;
The secret garden blooms and blooms,
Every morning - revealing new miracles,
A little girl plays,
As she dances and twirls,
Sprinkling gold dust and shimmer,
Telling me to
Live, dance, eat, pray and love,
May the long time sun shine upon you,
May you find your secret garden of magical power one day.
framing presentation
‘A complimentary frame does significantly more for a piece of art than just mounting it, it brings out the true colour and impression of the piece to fill the entire room adding elegance and a personal touch of style’
– Alexandra, Founder of Curate International Pte Ltd
Together with Mishell we believe framing is an integral part of the full artistic appreciation of the piece, making it an extension of the artwork itself. Together as a team we spend hours designing each individual framing style to truly complement the piece of art, allowing it to work in any interior.
During the creative process we hand select each and every individual material and finish to create a truly unique artistically inspired style using only the highest quality of archival quality materials to preserve your work.
‘My Secret Garden’ is framed in a beautifully minimalist style; mounted on glossy black acrylic panel following by a High Gloss Black Platina Frame to finished it. Simply allowing this stunning artwork do the talking; accentuating all those incredible details, colours and textures of the mixed media work to pop.
