Inspired by the legend of the Koi fish; graceful, determined and vibrant. 

An ancient tale tells of a huge school of golden Koi swimming upstream the Yellow River in China. Gaining strength by fighting against the current, the school glimmered as they swam together through the river. When they reached a waterfall at the end of the river, many of the Koi turned back, letting the flow of the river carry them away.

The remaining Koi refused to give up. After a hundred years of jumping, one Koi finally reached the top of the waterfall. The gods recognized the Koi for its perseverance and determination. It was turned into a golden dragon, the image of power and strength.

A beautiful reminder that whatever life may bring our way, we have the strength and courage inside to thrive.

I am based in the UK but more than happy to ship your orders to you if you live internationally. Border fees, duties, and handling fees may be charged by other countries which are all different so please enquire with me and I will do what I can to help.

From time to time I do offer free UK shipping offers so please keep up to date for some lovely offers through out the year by signing up to my mailing list!

You are welcome to pick up your original artwork in person at my home studio in Nottingham - it would be lovely to meet you in person. Use the code "StudioPickup" at the checkout to delete the shipping fees altogether and we will work out a time to meet via email hello@mirandalou.com. Alternatively I may be able to deliver directly to your doorstep if you live within the Nottinghamshire area.

I try my best wherever possible to use recycled materials.

Any issues with the arrival of your order please get in touch asap and I will investigate!

SIZES AND FRAMING

Originals - I work to standard size paper formats which can be placed within off the shelf sized size frames.

Prints - I generally work to A size formats as they allow standard size frames to be used. If you require an imperial size then please let me know and I can resize. As a quick tip, A5’s and A4’s are great to add some splashes of colour and energy to small spaces and nooks. A3’s work well in pairs on a lounge wall, above a bed/unit, and A2/A1’s make a great statement within a larger space.

If you would like to fill a large area, collecting artwork together makes beautiful gallery walls which can add instant impact to a room, I offer collector discounts on multiple prints (and would be honoured to fill your walls!).

If you would like help to put this together this just send me a note hello@mirandalouart.com I am very happy to visualise for you within your space.

Please also see the image guide for sizing in relation to a standard size sofa. If you would like an alternative size please contact me and I will see if the print will work - the sizes listed are directly related to the image quality - the delicacy of the details are very important to me and add to the value of my work.  I ensure the large prints are beautiful – you will be amazed at how much they look like the orginals!

Framing

I have shown all my artwork on the website in frames which I feel  best suit the piece. Check out my BLOG for hints and tips on FRAMING your art with confidence; you will also find recommendations for frame sourcing to suit your home.
