{October} Where the Garden Grieves & Gathers Grace | 12x9in to 60x45in

Here, a bed is made for the weight of loss to rest without rush. The willow’s leaves become the tears that scatter sorrow through the gloomy skies, allowing its echoes of lost love to fall upon the Garden’s soft ground. Every petal that holds onto its withering life becomes a blanket of lament for grief to find shelter under. The comfort of this quiet space is not one of hollowness. It is somehow a place of remembrance for all the blooming that once was, a place for weeping and naming what’s been taken too soon, and a place of surrender for the stripping of breath that Autumn inevitably brings. The Gardener walks among the mourning flowers, nursing what appears lifeless and paralyzed. Every ounce of pain and longing is honored; never belittled or forgotten. And yet, it is not all-consuming, either. Grace enters in like a harvesting of hope under a new morning sun, inviting the flowers to gather its worthy gifts – of strength that surpasses understanding, of memories that lighten the heart, and of the Gardener’s love that promises this land will not with death. Here, the Garden grieves honestly and gathers grace generously, as sorrow and hope share the same soil.

DETAILS FOR PURCHASING

Please note that the standard sizes might have slight cropping from the edges of the original image, and colors on screen may vary from colors on print.

All reproduction prints are printed on high-quality archival canvas with a satin finish by a trusted fine art printer.

Please allow about 2-4 weeks between time of order and delivery, as these are created made-to-order.

ROLLED CANVAS

Rolled (un-stretched) canvas is shipped in a tube for safe travel. These prints provide easy framing options, especially for smaller sizes. These work well with most frames you find at home decor stores. For larger sizes, you can take them to a framer for custom framing.

For extra large prints that are not available stretched: you can purchase it rolled, and then take it to a framer to get it professionally stretched, if desired. Please email me if you'd like to add a an extra 3 inch border, which is needed for stretching.

STRETCHED CANVAS

Stretched canvas has a "gallery-wrapped" style 1.5 inch depth, just like my original paintings on canvas. These prints are ready for hanging as-is, or you can take them to a local framer to be professionally framed.

If you are in the Greater Vancouver area and are interested in getting a stretched print framed, feel free to email me for framing recommendations!

STRETCHED & FRAMED

Stretched & Framed includes museum-quality presentation with the artwork professionally stretched on a 1.5" gallery-wrapped canvas and finished with a premium floating frame.

Each piece is enclosed in a 2.25" solid wood floater frame crafted from white oak with a matte clear finish, creating a refined, contemporary look that allows the artwork to "float" within the frame. The natural wood tone complements a wide range of interiors while adding warmth, depth, and architectural presence.

Ready to hang and designed for statement spaces, this format offers the closest experience to the original artwork.

Available exclusively in 48" × 36"
