About the Item
Artist Comments
Everyone said the old dragon was grouchy, grumpy, and mean. Some even said he was dangerous and should be left alone. "A monster!" others cried, warning their children to stay away. Marigold didn't believe any of it. She knew that sometimes we all need someone to reach out to, to be kind, and to be a friend. So that's what she did, remembering to bring him some of her favorite flowers to cheer him up. That was the day she met her best friend.
About the Artist
Andrea Doss discovered that there were stories hiding in her paintbrush, and has been bringing them to life with her art ever since. Her paintings capture the essence of children’s books and lullabies. Andrea’s love for fairytales and storytelling is evident in her personification of animal friendships and activities. Adventurous, sweet, and whimsical are appropriate words to describe the artist’s fanciful characters. Andrea lives in Texas and works from her home, always closely supervised by her opinionated one-eyed cat named Poe.
