Philocalist is a term with Greek Origins, which means 'Lover of Beauty'. A Philocalist is someone who finds and appreciates beauty in all its forms. This piece is so close to my heart. When I first started painting it, I had a wish to depict myself as a mermaid and create a pleasing and eyesome piece. So, I created it with an appealing backdrop. Tones of blue, golden and glitters in the background creates a vision of the subject being one of the glamourous ocean creatures i.e. a mermaid, in this captivating piece. I have depicted myself with peaceful, and loving qualities that I really adore in myself and others.
The Frame in the photograph is just for your reference of how the painting would look after framing. The piece is Unframed to allow the collector to frame it as per their interiors.
