Original artwork description:

"Losses and Hardships" - oil on plywood, 15 x 16

Fairy tales were a natural fit for the fantastical imagination of the young artist. Since her earliest childhood, she seemed to dwell partway between the real world, with its disproportionate share of losses and hardships, and some otherworldly wonderland of levity and light — a wonderland Virginia could now bring to life for the world.

​ - from THE MARGINALIAN, on the life and art of teenage artist Virginia Francis Sterrett by Maria Popover.
