* Artist-framed * Compassionately Happy

£290.00

A compassionately happy expression radiates warmth that is not self-contained but directed outward. It is happiness softened by empathy, the kind of joy that glows not because of personal triumph alone, but because it is shared, understood, and extended to others. The smile here is gentle rather than exuberant, the eyes carrying a kindness that makes the happiness feel inclusive rather than private.

Artist‑Framed

This work has been individually mounted and framed by the artist in the studio, using a bespoke design created to complement the print. The frame is not an afterthought but an integral part of the piece — crafted to enhance its presence, protect its longevity, and present it as a complete, ready‑to‑hang artwork. Every detail has been considered and executed by hand, making this framed edition a unique expression of the artist’s vision.
