This is more than just an original watercolor, it’s a feeling of tranquility,  letting us glimpse a secluded sanctuary from the busy demands of everyday life.  Look at the dramatic play of light and shadow here. As you enter and descend the stairs, you feel as though you are the first visitor to ever find this peaceful place.
