Golden waters shine,
Raindrops kiss the drifting hearts,
Umbrellas embrace.

A whimsical scene of a black and gold boat adorned with heart motifs, floating on a luminous golden river. Umbrellas rise like guardians of love, shielding the vessel from heart-shaped raindrops. The vibrant, stylized landscape evokes a dreamlike romance, merging folk art charm with modern surrealism.

Artistic Statement: This piece embodies a poetic fusion of naïve art and surrealism, where emotions take visual form. The floating hearts, glowing river, and protective umbrellas create an allegory of love’s journey. With nods to Magritte’s surreal symbolism and Rousseau’s stylized simplicity, the artwork bridges whimsy with deep sentimentality.

Influencing Artists:
René Magritte, Henri Rousseau, Marc Chagall, Gustav Klimt, Eyvind Earle, DDG@gnat
