I believe that true art is hard to find. (Maybe that is the reason why my walls are so bare?) The paintings you see in retail stores are pretty but they lack personality and inspiration. When I look at piece of art I want to be transported to the place or time and wrapped up in the emotion of the setting. That's the exact feeling I get when I look at the artwork created by Krishala Burchill.
Krishala, an artist raised in London but currently located in Switzerland, creates modern artwork inspired by her surroundings in modern day Europe. Each painting is a one of a kind and is sure to add emotion (and conversation!) to any room. You can view and purchase Krishala's work at her two Etsy Shops - Acacias Gallery and KrishSW19.
The Foggy day in Santiago painting from Acacias Gallery is so intriguing that I could look at it for hours. And the Pretty Little Things three-piece oil painting set available at KrishSW19 is so fun it is almost whimsical. I could browse Krishala's pieces all day and find new aspects of them that I never noticed before. To me, that is true art.Giveaway Giveaway

To Enter: You must visit Acacias Gallery and KrishSw19 and tell me which (1) print you would choose if you were the lucky winner. Please leave an email address in your comment or make sure it is visible in your profile.

This was a most difficult choice. I could have spent all day just browsing (literally and figuratively) in Krishala's two online / Etsy shops. I can't begin to say how hard it was to tear myself away from "CALL ME" at Acacias Gallery - but since it's the artists favorite...
I immediately fell in love the 3-piece "PRETTY LITTLE THINGS" (Your descriptions of Krishala's creations is on the mark: intensely emotive and visually compelling - or in the latter case, playful and whimsical...
I finally settled on "SWAYED" in her KRISHSW19 Shop: it really "spoke" to me and the colors could melt in your mouth as well as your mind.
