The Lillunia mosaic is a unique way to capture the magic of nature and show your child that they live in a magnificent world with many other families. http://www.lillunia.com/-MOSAIC-ART/Zoe-s-Zebras-p76.html

Each mosaic, from 5- 10 frames depict animal families in their natural habitats. Each frame is surrounded by one of our signature borders that can be used to coordinate the colors of your baby's space.

Lillunia also creates complimentary decoupage accessories (frames, tissue boxes, light switch covers) that compliment our images.

Experts understand that the youngest newborns can distinguish subtle shades. As early as 9 weeks old, infants’ contrast sensitivity becomes 10 times greater, allowing them to see large patterns or objects that have less than 0.5% contrast. This is nearly as good as their parents’ contrast sensitivity (0.2%). This means that by about 2 months old your baby is capable of perceiving almost all of the subtle shades and patterns that make our planet so rich and magnificent.

Content matters at this critical time in a child’s development. Lillunia understand this and takes it seriously.

All of the animals our world have parents and babies and families As a child’s visual capabilities strengthen s/he will also be learning his or her first words, matching objects with sounds and creating meaning.

By showing our children, from the very beginning of their lives, that all of us share the same planet, air and water, the same bonds between parents and children, we allow them to see and create a place for themselves in a community.

LILLUNIA: illustrate illuminate elevate

Welcome to Lillunia's first blog post!

Our lush and unique watercolors and limited edition Giclee pieces are created by a select group of artists committed to – and driven by – the Lillunia mission: to create visibly accessible and effortlessly inspiring depictions of animals and their young in nature in order to teach our children about the wonders of our world and their vital role in its future.

At Lillunia we create individual works of art as well as the "Lillunia Mosaic"; a unique twist on traditional children’s wall art and nursery décor.

The Lillunia “Mosaic” is a contemporary take on the classical mosaic and the mural. The Lillunia Mosaic is a collection of frames that depict animals and their young moving through their environments. As they move through the frames and up and around and above a child’s bedroom walls, the art wraps the child’s environment in a magical story that captures the imagination and inspires the mind.

Lillunia is part of the solution. In all that we create and do, we leave the smallest possible ecological footprint. If life is filled with the lessons we can teach one another, we take our role in the lives of your children and ours very seriously!
