Gothic Rose

by Nicole Grosjean

Rose is a dark Gothic style carousel horse based on the Friesian breed and wears a silver skeleton armor. She is both beautiful and mysterious, and perfect for a midnight carnival. The artwork is made from many layers of laser cut paper, painted in watercolor and gouache, and adorned with genuine silver leaf. The mat and background are bejeweled with vintage glass rhinestones and specialty papers. This little carousel horse will sparkle on your wall like jewelry! It is finished in a silver shadowbox frame and protected by nearly invisible museum glass. She is looking for the perfect home to amuse and delight all those who encounter her!

The frame is 9.25″ square and 2″ deep, but as it hangs diamond shape it will take up 13″ on the wall.

Nicole Grosjean

Nicole Grosjean graduated with a BFA in illustration from the Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design in Denver, Colorado in 2008. She combines her passions for fantasy and craftsmanship into unique, multi-layered works of art. To her, there is nothing more valuable than an object an artist has created with their own hands. She endeavors to build pieces that are not only illustrations, but wonderfully complex environments in their own right. Nicole is constantly trying new techniques and pushing the boundaries of materials and mediums to bring her visions to life.

Her sculptural illustrations are patterned from detailed drawings, hand-cut, and then layered to create various depths depending on the size of the piece. The layers are then painted in watercolor and gouache, and are often back lit with LED lights.
