Briar Rose French Style Clock – JP3059

Briar Rose is one of the fairy tales compiled by the brothers Grimm. The source of the story also had influences from Sleeping Beauty. Each of these three wonderful clocks tells the same story in a completely different style of painting. Easily adaptable to a large variety of surfaces but also spectacular pieces to adorn your home and celebrate the creativity of folk art.

For this style, let’s go to the South of France, and paint Petite Tick-Tock with color and a lot of joy (joie de vivre).
