The Peaceful Garden With eyes closed in peaceful meditation, a white cat considers the nature of life. Surrounded by a flowering tree and small hillocks of varying shades of deep umber, bright orange flowers spark in the quiet space like fire. A curious owl watches nearby and wishes that he would ask his companion about its enigmatic smile. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)

Secret Corners: The Playroom Floor In the hidden corners of the world, sweet mysteries abound. The little girl witnesses a magical moment as tiny creatures march across her playroom floor. Pencil drawing of a small girl kneeling on a patterned rug, playing with her doll. On the floor, in front of her, eleven tiny creatures march in and out of the designs on the floor, lit up by an open window, casting long shadows.

The Mysterious Monster March: WATCHING
Illustration from a children's picture book that I am working on.

"He watches as the three monsters join others in a long line.
He can hear them rumbling and grumbling,
hooting and howling as they slowly march past."

To read some of the pages from the story, please visit: https://gretchenkdeahl.com/gallery/?mgc_58=72/mysterious-monster-march I'd love to hear your comments or feedback! :-)

The Mysterious Monster March: WATCHING Illustration from a children's picture book that I am working on. Deep within a sunlit forest, the newly hatched baby monster watches the growing line of marching monsters from a cautious distance. It is standing quietly on the roots of an ancient tree, surrounded by flowering vegetation. In its hand, it holds its security blanket, err... leaf. Watching it, is a new friend, a green dragonfly.

The Girl and the Bear In the quiet forest, walks a gentle bear. Upon his sunny back a young girl sleeps. (100% human-made) human imagined, drawn and painted, no AI whatsoever. Early in the morning, at the edge of a forest of brown and purple, greens and gold, a smiling bear pads quietly across the grass. Caught in a sunbeam, a young girl in a flowered yellow dress is sleeping upon his back, her arms folded under her head. Plants, like ferns and budding flowers, line each side of the glade.

Monsters in a Teacup
Humans aren't the only ones who enjoy a spot of tea now and again. Little monsters have been know to slip quietly into kitchens when no one is around and sneak a sip or two of freshly brewed sweetness. Alas, some of these tiny creatures may become so enamored with the tea, that they sip themselves silly and fall into a state of euphoria, causing all manner of behavior.

Set against a flower covered wallpaper, piled into a porcelain teacup, are 5 tiny monsters. Peeking from behind, one more peers above the tabletop.

Hi everyone, STILL working on new art. I will be posting less frequently for just a bit, as I finish up and add to my online shop on REDBUBBLE. Thank you for all of your continued likes, follows and comments, and your patience! It is greatly appreciated. :-) :-)

into the garden - summers end
This is the third in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into the deep colors of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

into the garden - summers end This is the third in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into the deep colors of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world. Against a deep umber, rust, purple and green background, the top of a pumpkin orange abstract head with closed eyes. On its crown, a patch of dandelions whose dried white heads open into full spheres, parachuting seeds as they glide through the wind.
