Little Boots, Big Courage
About this item
Thailys Freites, Staff
A charming and humorous watercolor featuring a determined little duckling standing proudly in a pair of oversized blue boots. Soft washes of blues, purples, and yellows create a gentle, dreamy atmosphere, while Thailys’s signature squiggly-line technique brings the duckling to life with movement and personality. The playful stance and expressive textures give this piece a heartwarming sense of courage and individuality.
About the Artist:
Thailys, Head of Learning Support, has been painting her whole life. When her essential tremor progressed and straight lines became difficult, she refused to give up her craft—instead, she transformed her tremor into her style. Her distinctive squiggly lines and flowing watercolours are a celebration of adaptation, resilience, and the joy of creating without limits.
