Artist Statement

I grew up with this story, and something that always intrigued me was the mystery of the garden. I loved imagining what was behind the door, and that sense of wonder always drew me back in time and time again. So with this piece, I wanted to mimic that magic, and try to capture the passerby's attention, and draw them in by the mystery of the cover. — Renee Rolewicz
