Artist's description: Amara is one of the characters in my "Strangeling" book, and this design is created from my original acrylic illustration of her. A "menehune" - Hawaiian spirit - this piece has a decidedly tiki feel, bright colours, glowing tiki gods, flashing mysterious eyes, and an evocation of delicious tropical drinks.....About the Artist

• Jasmine is a traditional acrylic painter, combining elements of realism with fantasy and the surreal. Historical and spiritual references are intertwined with fairytales and the beauty of nature. Her trademark liquid eyed maidens evoke a wide range of emotions and responses to the surrounding imagery. It is her goal to bring a bit of magic and intrigue to the mundane world with every painting!
  
  Jasmine's images appear in many books in magazines as well as countless merchandising lines such as the Bradford Exchange, the Hamilton Collection, dolls with Ashton-Drake and her lines with Disney. Her paintings appear in public and private collections throughout the world.
  
  Jasmine was born in 1979 and began showing her work professionally in 1997. She is a fulltime painter and lives in Celebration, Florida with her husband/assistant Matt and their cats. Her primary gallery is Pop Gallery at Downtown Disney at Walt Disney World in Florida, her Disney art can be seen at WonderGround Gallery at Disneyland in California, and her website is www.strangeling.com
