Artwork Description

The three of them had been standing there for some time. Drowsy, comfortable.
The Starlings have been trying to get through. They'd been at it for days but nothing seems to be working.
But she could see what was needed here - The Lyrian, aglow with that special light came carrying a bramble branch and a scroll sealed with secrets.
She presses it against the nearest shoulder. The message has been delivered. What happens next is up to them…

Artist Bio

Hi! My name is Lillibet - I'm a self-taught figurative oil painter based in Brisbane, Australia.
I am interested in both the temporal and spiritual worlds. I paint mostly large-scale, symbolic paintings built from rich, layered colour.
I like to explore moments that are hard to name but easy to recognise and relate to when you see it.
My process is intuitive and slow, each painting built up in layers until it sings! And my colour palette leans into gemstone tones. I love working with deep crimsons, rich teals, burnished golds and navy blues.
