The Haunted Cottage of the South Shore

30x10cm, Acrylic on canvas, £300

This haunted cottage on Nova Scotia's South Shore was once home to a sea captain's wife who, after his disappearance, died waiting for his return. Her restless spirit is said to haunt the cottage, with visitors reporting eerie presences and the sound of her sorrowful sobs.

This painting captures the haunted atmosphere of the cottage, where floating ghosts in the sky evoke the lingering spirits that surround the lonely lakeside home.

The Phantom Fisherman of Gabarus Bay

30x10cm, Acrylic on canvas. £300

The Phantom Fisherman of Gabarus Bay haunts the waters after being lost in a storm, his ghostly presence felt along the shore where his body was never found. Locals claim to hear his eerie voice in the wind, calling out for help on stormy nights.

In my painting, the skull-like ghost head floating in the sky, paired with a bouquet of dying autumn flowers over the ocean, echoes the haunting presence of the Phantom Fisherman, embodying the lost soul's eternal connection to the sea.

Bailey Blue

Artist Introduction:

Bailey is a Canadian artist living in London, UK, transitioning from digital illustration to the contemporary art scene. Her work is deeply rooted in the natural beauty of her Canadian upbringing, particularly the ocean in Nova Scotia, which is heavily inspiring her upcoming collection. Bailey's paintings are a personal journey of healing, helping combat anxiety and overcome depression, using expressive techniques including finger painting to bring her work to life.

Artist Statement:

In my work, I embrace expressive techniques, using brushes and finger painting to create pieces that challenge perception rather than depict reality. I merge earthy tones with vibrant colors, blending folk art elements to evoke a deep connection to nature. Drawing inspiration from my childhood in the Canadian wilderness, I infuse each piece with a sense of secluded introspection. My art, whether digital or physical, invites viewers to question what they see and feel, creating an emotional resonance that transcends the ordinary.
