It’s rare that I find an artist who seems to so perfectly capture the way I feel about nature sometimes. Painter Jeremy Miranda has a new series of work at Little Paper Planes in which he examines nature/landscape and how people look to control or dwell within it. I didn’t grow up spending time around mountains or colder climates, so I find myself constantly attracted to, at the same time, terrified of them. They’re so wild and mysterious and overwhelming that it’s tempting to find a way to take refuge near them so you can catch a glimpse, but not be swallowed whole by their vastness. Jeremy’s prints for LPP depict landscapes that teeter back and forth between those feelings isolation and safety. I’m partial to the iceberg print above, but you can check out (and buy) the full collection right here. These are the sorts of images that will have be thinking and looking back at them all day today… xo, grace

I have seen his work on Etsy before, it is very haunting, when I fisrt discover his work I kept going back in his shop to check them out. I love the green house series.
truly gorgeous. i love his work. such cool and moody colors.
I have to say I like these a lot. They have a very retro feel, they remind me of Jonny Quest animation backgrounds.
I LOVE his work – lucky enough to own 2 originals — bought off etsy. They glow.
@lisa so lucky you own one!! yeah I really wanted to buy an original they are amazing and so I thought for us that can’t I wanted to share his work in an affordable way and offer them as prints. They make me so happy!
This is CRAZY!!! I grew up with Jeremy. So crazy to see his work on your blog today. It’s amazing to watch his style evolve.
Wow…not only are these gorgeous, but the way you talked about nature was rather profoundly put-good words!
Totally agree with this: “It’s rare that I find an artist who seems to so perfectly capture the way I feel about nature sometimes.”
The selection of pictures on display definitely back-up your point. Love it
