I’m Late, I’m Late, I’m Painting the White Roses Red

by Nadia Rausa

The White Rabbit—always running late. On one terrible day, Alice needs red pigment to paint the white roses, lest she loses her head to the Red Queen. Alice crosses paths with the White Rabbit as he scurries to his next appointment, and it is unfortunate to say that Alice acted with ill intentions. She commits a quiet crime, and the White Rabbit will, forevermore, be late. Poor, poor Alice has lost her innocence for good. 

I created this piece in 2019, along with its slightly morbid retelling of Alice (which has been slightly modified recently). I don’t fully recall what inspired this piece, but I do know 2019 was tumultuous year for me personally, filled with worsening mental health struggles (little did I know then that 2020 would turn the world upside down, eh?). I’ve also always had a love for everything Alice-themed, especially the video game, “Alice: Madness Returns.” Although I see things I could improve with my 2026 artist eyes and brain, I do still love this piece and I’d love to create more paintings like it! In the meantime, I hope this piece finds a loving home. Thanks for taking the time to read the little story!

Every Day Original: A home for original art, artists, and believers.

In 2014, I had been going to art conventions for years, and I noticed a consistent puzzle. Artists were all talking about the struggle to sell, and everyone else was talking about the struggle to buy. Artists wanted to sell more work and experiment more outside their comfort zone. And the people buying wanted to buy more than they did. But the artists had to be consistent at these shows, and their art was often (deservedly) out of a starting collector’s price range.

I created Every Day Original to solve this puzzle. And it’s become much more.

At “EDO,” as it was soon called, we created a platform for artists to experiment with small work and for everyone to be able to start their art collection. Over the years, the success of EDO has allowed us to showcase new voices and voices that might otherwise not be “big” enough. Because we feature new work every single day, everyone has an opportunity to start their collection and support this vision.

By joining our mailing list, you join a community of people who believe that art isn’t just a commodity. It’s a passion and way of life that deserves to be seen and celebrated every day.

I hope you'll join us.
