The Dream Princess c.1631-2001

Dream Princess c.1631-2001′ – is a manipulation of an old painting, where I took the 17th Century portrait of this baby girl wearing a pearl choker and a coral teething stem and I ‘accessorised’ her with some fabulous plastic gems from the 20th century!

The Inspiration For This Website’s Colour Palette

Painted in c.1379 – 1451 by the Veronese artist Giovanni Badile – the rich green colours contrasted against the orange of the coral and the golden highlights in this ‘Madonna Of Humility’ painting have influenced the brand palette for this website.
