“Rapunzel – Original Book Cover Painting”
Aquarelle on Canvas
Cover artwork for Because You See Me by Alexa Astaire, a sensual modern Rapunzel retelling.

Painting 40 x 50 x 1,5 cm, on canvas. (Shipping dimensions see additional informations)

This evocative watercolor painting captures a sensual, modern retelling of the Rapunzel fairy tale, brought to life through soft, fluid brushstrokes. At its heart, a woman and a man stand face to face, locked in a moment of deep connection, their gazes meeting with intensity and vulnerability. Their presence is powerful yet intimate, echoing themes of trust, desire, and rediscovery.

In a striking meta detail, the painting includes another painting within itself—a subtle, dreamlike inset showing the couple in a more intimate embrace, offering a glimpse into the deeper layers of their relationship. The composition weaves emotion and visual storytelling, mirroring the raw, poetic tone of Alexa Astaire’s contemporary novel.

This is the original book cover artwork, making it not just a visual piece but a central part of the story’s soul.
