EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by John Simmons that takes us into an enchanting world of fairies and magical creatures. This exquisite artwork, captured in watercolor and gouache, showcases Simmons' exceptional talent for creating ethereal scenes. In this mesmerizing piece, we are transported to a lush fern-filled forest where bumblebees buzz around delicate flowers. The starry night sky illuminates the scene as fairies flit about with wands in hand. One can almost hear the soft rustling of leaves under tiny fairy feet. At the center of it all stands Queen Titania herself, radiating grace and beauty. She is surrounded by her loyal subjects who eagerly await her commands. It feels as if we have stumbled upon a secret gathering in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Simmons' attention to detail is remarkable; every leaf seems to come alive with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The play of light on each surface adds depth and dimension to this fantastical realm. This print captures not only the magic within Simmons' brushstrokes but also our own childhood wonderment at tales of fairies and mystical realms. It serves as a reminder that even in our adult lives, there is still room for imagination and belief in something extraordinary beyond what meets the eye.
