Mythical Garden - Framed Mixed Media Collage

A story waiting to be told. Mythical Garden is a departure from the ordinary - a playful, intricate mythical collage that feels like a rediscovered page from an ancient folklore.

Joan Ellis combines texture, color, and cut-out forms to create a world where winged horses and celestial figures float among giant, stylized blooms. Set against a deep, moody charcoal background, the warm ochres, faded pinks, and earthy greens pop with a vintage charm.

The artwork itself measures 38.10 x 48.26 cm (15" x 19") and arrives beautifully framed in a 53.34 x  66.04 cm (21" x 26") dark brown wood frame , ready to add a touch of magic to a reading nook, hallway, or gallery wall.

This piece invites you to pause and make up your own story. Who is the floating figure? Where is the horse flying to? It is a little world of its own.
