About the piece
Our Own Little Paradise is Kerry Darlington’s radiant ode to peace, creativity, and our connection with the natural world. Beneath a canopy of golden leaves, an artist’s easel rests among deer, owls, and songbirds — gentle companions to a moment of stillness and imagination. A picnic beneath the branches completes this warm, tranquil scene, inviting us to slow down and breathe.
This composition marks an important step in Darlington’s artistic journey. While she has previously tucked miniature references to her own work within her paintings, here she subtly places the idea of herself in the scene. The easel becomes a quiet stand-in — a symbol of the joy of creating and the beauty of simply being present with nature.
The limited edition is enhanced with high-gloss resin, raised 3D detailing, and delicate metallic leaf that shimmers through the foliage. Each handcrafted touch catches the light, creating a luminous surface that feels alive and deeply tactile.
At Trent Galleries, we are delighted to showcase this work as part of Darlington’s ever-evolving artistic journey. It stands as both a nod to her signature style and a bold step toward new imaginative worlds — a piece for those who treasure narrative, craft, and a touch of wonder.

Fantastic service and quality banter with very good products. The staff are very polite and helpfulWayne Jones
"Fabulous service from David and Evie. Love my latest purchase delivered personally last night !"- John Coates
We were looking for a unique piece for my parents 50th anniversary. The ladies were very helpful and gave great ideas what pieces represented. We chose a lovely puffin sculpture called rocky romance. I would definitely recommend this gallery who wants one to one custom, knowledge of their pieces.Rachel Cowel
Fantastic service from the Beverley gallery. Both David and Evie were helpful and knowledgeable. We decided on 2 Tom Butler prints and David was happy to bring them to our home so we could see them in situ and answer any questions we had. We are delighted with both and would definitely recommend Trent GalleriesCathy Scarr
Tracey is a pleasure to deal with and I have made many purchases from her. She knows exactly what I like and is hugely responsive and accommodating - even finding me pieces I have seen elsewhere. My gallery of choice always!Natalie Eshelby
