Watercolor Mixed Media Fantasy Paintings by Patricia Allingham Carlson

These are paintings evoked entirely by imaginings, and spring spontaneously to the paper through squinted eye and dreaming mind. Some far away and long ago, some are created by wishes of what could be. Inspired by great stories and pure imagination, these fantasy artwork provides sweeping creativity on the subject of magic kingdoms and fairy queens. The dreams of great writers and poets, the epic adventures of heroes and sages, and the wishes of young children, caught in brilliant color and the unique perspective of the artist.
