Miniature snail painting, slow and steady oddity with snail shell & human hand, painting detailed leafy foliage, script lettering, slowpoke
Description
This little oddity is only two inches square, but it includes a lot of detail (and yes, it took quite a while to paint)! A curious chimera with a human hand emerging from a snail shell paints an intricate tangle of foliage spelling out "Slow" in leafy script. Miniature painting in acrylic on text (including synonyms for "slow" from an antique thesaurus).
This tiny canvas is partially wrapped, & all edges are painted with a warm metallic texture, so it looks finished even without a frame.
I will pack it carefully for safe transit, & mail it Priority USPS, insured.
It may take a couple of days to pack & mail but should reach you in about a week within the contiguous US. Please note that the mails do take longer near the holidays, & overseas mailings can take quite a while. Expedited shipping is possible at an extra cost. Please contact me directly before ordering.
If you have any questions or problems with this listing, please contact me directly & I will do everything possible to help!
