About the Art: "Dreaming of Being Human"

This is a really personal painting of Dakota's. She has felt throughout her whole life like she was different from everyone, and just longed to be "normal." (What ever that is.) She thankfully has really learned to embrace her "weird" and roll with it. Dakota gravitates towards the dark, emotional, passionate, vibrant, magical sides of life.... and instead of changing it she now lets it reflect in her work. This piece was an embodiment of that healing, the chains holding down the mermaid are what Dakota envisions societal norms doing to the creatives of this world. The mermaid is reaching out and touching the wave (the wall between her and her magic.) Again, there is a lionfish present (they can be spotted in many of her paintings.) It's Dakota's favorite fish.

 

These are high quality prints of her original painting (copies) Not an original painting.

Traditional Canvas Print (Signed)
High quality inks and materials, these are the most popular. Canvas prints are hand stretched over wood by Dakota and look the most like traditional art. These take approximately 5-8 days to create, plus shipping time. These usually arrive at your door in about 2 weeks. Canvas prints come hand signed by Dakota with a card that has the name of the artwork and the date your canvas was created.

These will retain value the best out of any print options of her work.

 

Flat Photo Print (Signed)
Printed on high quality thick photo paper, these come hand signed by Dakota and ship the fastest. They will need to be framed before hanging as they are a flat rolled print. They are the most affordable option.

 

Dakota makes both of these prints in house, these are not made by some big box retailer. She makes sure each one is hand crafted with care, from the making of the wood frame (for canvas), stretching, stapling, signing... all done by her! The photo and canvas prints are made in her house on her 44" commercial giclee printer with high quality pigment, museum grade archival inks. She takes the time to make sure you will get the highest quality print possible.

 

  • Please keep prints out of direct sunlight, away from high heat, away from freezing temperatures, and away from high humidity areas.
