A charming and endearing work by Paul Horton, which is signature of his unique and simplistic style.
Paul explores the idea of storytelling, and that something prior has occurred to reference the title, as often the artist does in his limited editions - getting you to imagine the scene!
The idea that people are inside the house 'Safe and Sound' after a long day, is created not only by the title but also the surrounding trees which situate on either side of the house...
...bending towards the building in a comforting manner.
The child like depiction of the house itself makes a fantastic addition to all Horton lovers.
Working in addition to Horton's previous art work, this perfect little house twists and changes perspective for the viewer so we can see the house at night.
The deep and cool tones of the sky work in unison with the mauve, lilac appearance of the house.
It is the attention to detail and the slight elements of smoke coming from the chimney that suggest a warm and cost atmosphere beyond the walls that only the viewer can see.
A perfect Giclee to be a feature of your home!
A fantastic offer for the two pieces to coincide perfectly with each other, complimenting each other well.
The symmetry created with the two pieces featuring side by side, almost as part of their own series is a charming focal point for any wall they are situated on.
A brilliant example into the mind of artist Paul Horton!
