Serendipity - Original Contemporary Abstract Painting by Harriet Muller

Every collector discovers something different in Serendipity. I would love to hear what this painting reveals to you.
The Story Behind the Painting
Serendipity was born entirely by chance.
After completing several other oil paintings, at the end of each session I found myself with a palette still full of beautiful colours that I couldn’t bear to waste. Instead of cleaning my brushes, I allowed the remaining paint to find its own path across the canvas, using mainly a palette knife, responding instinctively rather than following a preconceived idea.
Gradually, a world began to emerge.
To me, the painting became a mythical rainforest, where waterfalls disappear into hidden pools, lily pads float across tranquil water and tropical flowers bloom beneath shifting light. Every layer revealed another unexpected discovery.
What has fascinated me most is how differently people experience this painting. Some see exotic birds hidden amongst the foliage, others discover vibrant bouquets of flowers or even the atmosphere of a celebration, with raised glasses and movement between figures.
That is why I chose the title Serendipity. It celebrates those rare moments when unexpected beauty appears, reminding us that some of life’s greatest discoveries are never planned.
Like nature itself, this painting continues to reveal something new each time it is viewed.
