Moonlight Belongs to Dreamers: Love Letters to Eureka, #1 Basin Park Hotel, Winter Moon, Matted 11x14 Flat Print

#1 - Basin Park Hotel, Winter Moon

A Love Letter from a Star

A lone star crowns the rooftop, long after the holidays have passed. The streets are empty, the air thick with memory. It’s the week between Christmas and the New Year—the quietest days in Eureka Springs. The city exhales, and time folds in on itself.

From this angle, everything aligns: the Basin hotel stands like a medieval tower, lit from within. The moon, swollen and imperfect, floats above like a question you’ve asked your whole life but never dared put into words. The hand-painted signs whisper tales from another century, while the HVAC units betray the truth: you’re still HERE, now. But just barely.

This image is a love letter to liminal space—to the moments in between, when the world softens and the sky remembers you. That rooftop star isn’t just decoration. It’s a signal flare. It’s the ache of something you almost remember.
The lights have been left on.
It’s time to come home.

Moonlight Belongs to Dreamers: Love Letters to Eureka

This piece began as a real photo—taken during a moonlit walk through Eureka Springs. I refine the image in Photoshop, then collaborate with a drawing tool to translate its emotion into an oil painting style. The result is a visual poem—rooted in place, rich with feeling. Every print is finished by hand and paired with its story.

This is art as invocation—an invitation to remember the magic that is all around us.
