Ophelias Garden - Enchantment
If you are familiar with Shakespeare’s Hamlet, or the painting by John Everet Milias, you will already know Ophelia, beautiful innocent, niave Ophelia. Deep sorrow and despair following rejection by Hamlet and the death of her father drive her to the lake in which she drowns.
This modern interpretation of Ophelia is serene, sensual and strong. She retreats to the garden out of grief and despair but draws on her surroundings to become stronger, despite the loss and betrayal. She learns to free herself through acceptance and forgiveness – though she will never forget!

I just love the painterly effect Naomi, and I recognised the Milias influence straight away. I saw Caroline’s pastel first so had to check you out.

Hi Naomi – I’m brand new to this Red Bubble thing, but can immediately understand your addiction! Likewise, I have the Millais print in my house, being a fan of the story and the art. I’m quite smitten with your take on it.
Matt Halls
Beautiful work.

So creative! This is a beautiful work of art. I love this one. And your other work, Great Expectations, makes me think of Maxfield Parrish. You’re very talented.
