This painting was a prototype or test painting for the larger Rarotonga works, utterly inspired by the gorgeous tropical outdoor goldfish streams and lily ponds in Rarotonga. Especially the The Rarotongan Beach Resort & Lagoonarium - if you're ever there, look closely at the lush water features at the entrance. Inspired also by the Maire Nui Botanic Gardens and Cafe. The Maire Nui gardens are outstanding, there are seven acres of spectacular tropical gardens with lush cooling lily ponds and beautiful mountain views. A wonderful place to chill and relax.
There's one large goldfish, Koi or Carp fish, with some smaller ones under the lily pads. Bits shimmer, and theres metallics that glint depending on how the light shines on it. There is iridescence, and sparkles like sunlight flickering through the water. A wee dragon fly hovers and leaves and folliage float through the water. This painting has many layers, it looks watery and floaty.
The painting is not perfect. But it is beautiful and calming.
Listed imperfections (aka wee treasures) are as follows; (but not limited to….,)
- 2 obvious (to me) white Sasquatch Sassy Siberian Husky dog hairs strands floating in the work, or bonus; artists pooch DNA preserved to infinity and beyond.
- Unperfect resin. But definately passable.
- A wee chink on the edge of the top left hand corner
I've paired this painting with this super chill tune; Called Boyhood, by Japanese House, listen on Spotify here.

We do not post to PO box addresses.
Because some paintings are oversized, they may take a little longer to arrive.
If you're an international buyer, please email us for a shipping quote.
The artworks are finished in a UV resistant resin which gives it that glass like finish. However, for longevity it’s best not to place this painting, or any artwork, or even humans or animals in direct UV / sunlight.
All multimedia work is created using top quality materials and arrives ready to be hung, with hanging hardware already attached to the back. But should you wish to professionally frame – you can do that too.
If you're considering a painting, but not 100% sure, please feel free to email me a photo of the room or space you'd like to hang the painting in. I'll email through a mock-up of what it could look like in your living room, dining room, office, kitchen or wall.
Full disclosure: The artworks, like the artist, are not perfect. I have a Siberian Husky dog called Sasquatch and some loose strands of fur may be forever immortalized in your painting, although I can’t guarantee that either!
That said, I want you to be 100% happy with your painting and I understand that buying art online can be challenging. So, I offer a 7-day return policy. If you receive the painting and decide it’s not for you, or it doesn’t suit the room you bought it for, please feel free to return it to me in its original condition - within 7 days of receiving it and I will be happy to refund, less any postage costs.
