Elegant but strong. Soft yet enduring. A flower that asks nothing of us except that we slow down long enough to appreciate it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Magnolias in the Moonlight\" was inspired by those moments where the world seems to soften. The scent of flowers carried on cool evening air. The stillness that arrives after a busy day. The feeling of standing beneath the night sky and realising there is nowhere else you need to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated as part of my latest collection exploring humanity, presence and the joy of real life, this work is a reminder that beauty often asks us to slow down rather than speed up. To notice rather than consume. To experience rather than scroll.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted with expressive brushwork, layered colour and visible hand-made marks, the piece embraces the beauty of the hand. I wanted the work to feel alive, joyful and unmistakably human — carrying a sense of warmth and presence into the home it inhabits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLIVING WITH THE WORK\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 183cm x 122cm, Magnolias in the Moonlight is designed to become a statement within a space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe warm earth tones, deep browns and creamy magnolia petals create a sense of quiet luxury. As the light changes throughout the day, the painting reveals new subtleties and depth, rewarding slow observation and creating an atmosphere of calm sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFRAMING \u0026amp; PRESENTATION\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame is not an afterthought — it is an extension of the artwork itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnable to find a commercial framing finish that I felt truly complemented the tones within this collection, I sourced a beautiful Japanese brown stain and hand-finished each Tasmanian Oak frame in my studio. The deep brown finish was carefully chosen to elevate the artwork while maintaining a sense of warmth and timelessness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach frame carries subtle variations from the hand-finishing process, adding another layer of individuality to an already one-of-a-kind piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eARTWORK DETAILS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Original, one-of-one artwork\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Acrylic and oil pastel on canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 183cm x 122cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Professionally framed in hand-stained Tasmanian Oak\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Signed by RIKKI DAY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Ready to hang\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Certificate of Authenticity included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSHIPPING \u0026amp; DELIVERY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour artwork arrives ready to hang with professional hardware installed on the reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach piece is carefully wrapped and packaged in a custom double-walled shipping carton designed to provide maximum protection during transit.
