Backyard Daydream: 8x10 watercolor art print by Dorothy Tully

An artist looks out over the backyard garden through dappled shade and lush green plants. Her cat sits on the warm roof tiles. What is she thinking about? She's taking a break and daydreaming. :)

This original piece was included in a local juried gallery exhibition in October 2026. I'm super proud that it got in! Yay! ^_^

I based this illustration on a photo I saw in a 1970s interior design book, which looked so cozy and inviting! Retro, yet timeless. I was inspired to bring this scene to life by introducing this character, these details, this moment, her daydream. She looks a lot like me! Drawn in pen and painted in watercolors.

Print is crystal clear FULL RESOLUTION and watermark will not appear on your print.

This 8x10 print of my original illustration is custom printed and shipped directly to you by my printing partner in Texas USA. I chose this printer for their superior quality!!!

• 8x10 giclee art print of my original artwork
• Printed on museum-quality 100% cotton rag archival fine art paper
• Paper is beautiful, thick, softly textured watercolor paper
• Fade-resistant, pigment-based inks with crisp, bright colors
• White border for easy framing
  
• It looks just like my original piece. Basically it's top of the line!

This print would look fantastic in your own special space. Be inspired! Surround yourself with art and feel happier. :) Or, give the gift of colorful, unique art that speaks to the dreamer within.

Thank you for supporting an independent artist. I appreciate each and every order. May it bring you joy!
