Story behind this artwork:
Dragonflies blow my mind with their beauty and cleverness. The way they fly — even upside down — seems effortless and mesmerising. Their ability to instantly change direction is a beautiful reminder to stay adaptable and lighthearted when facing life's challenges.
I loved painting this pretty scene filled with frangipani, seedpods and palms, while playing with the colours of grape and light blue in particular.
This artwork can be paired with Dance of the Dragonfly 2 or 1&2 Pair to create a beautiful complementary set.

Canvas vs. Paper - what's the difference?
The short answer:
- A canvas print looks like the original (with the exception of not being able to see the 3D texture of the paint), but you can still see my brushstrokes.
- Fine art paper prints need to be framed under glass, by your local framer.
The longer (technical) answer:
- Canvas
Weight: 350gsm
Finish: Satin
Material: 65% Polyester, 35% Cotton
Archival: Yes, 75+ years
Rolled or Framed
Satin Canvas prints are crafted from a durable poly-cotton blend, designed to closely replicate the look and feel of my original paintings. The subtle texture of the canvas enhances the details, while the satin finish ensures deep, vibrant colours and so you can clearly see my original brushstrokes.
Each canvas print as an additional 5cm blank border for stretching. Prints are available rolled (delivered in a postal tube) or framed (stretched and ready to hang). Every canvas print comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
- Paper
Weight: 320gsm
Finish: Matte
Material: 100% Cotton
Archival: Yes, 100+ years
Rolled Only (requires framing)
Cotton Rag is a premium fine art paper made from 100% cotton fibers, offering a smooth yet subtly textured surface that enhances every detail of the artwork. Its natural matte finish ensures exceptional colour depth and richness while being free from optical brighteners, giving it a lightfast rating of over 100 years.
Paper prints have an additional 5cm blank border and are delivered rolled in a postal tube, ready for framing. Each print comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Rolled prints can be shipped Worldwide.
+ Given everyone views my art on different screens, the colours of the artwork you receive may vary slightly from how it is displayed online.
How to find the right size artwork?
My prints are available in a range of sizes to suit your space, with options for paper, rolled canvas, and framed canvas.
Top tip: Grab some post-it notes and mark up the proposed size of your new artwork. View it from different distances to check it will have the impact you are after.
If in doubt, I always tend to upsize vs having an artwork that is too small for the wall.

READ BLOG ARTICLE ON HOW TO CHOOSE CORRECT SIZE ARTWORK
Paper Prints:
Please consider that you are likely to have paper prints framed under glass with the option to have a border or mat added by your framer. This will impact the size of the finished framed artwork.
Framed Canvas Prints:
The frame on your canvas print will add 1cm on each side to the overall size on your wall.
If you are choosing a rolled canvas, your framer will advise the total finished size for you. Typically, if you choose "shadow line" framing - as shown here on my website - it adds 1-2cm on each side.
If you need a custom size - please email me at hello@annalohe.com
