peacock

Here is some of the art that led to my 'peacock' print for Spring 2010. I didn't want to do a traditional chintz, so I combined a peacock motif with freeform scribbling I did for a calendar project. The scribbling was inspired by an old copy of Lawrence of Arabia that turned up in my grandmother's house. The artist has made the headdress look sort of like lace, but really I think it's just a great image.
