Description
Please note that the watermark in the lower right does not appear on any ordered prints or products.
This piece is a leap into a more angular composition with sharp diamonds with a pillowed diamond in the center, beige lines at right angles, sometimes resembling lightening bolts or zig zag shapes, and some triangles, but with some softening here and there with round shapes, white and pink polka dots, swirls, and pillow shapes around the border with red and white stripes.
Angular hard edges symbolically usually refer to rigidity, ritualism and schedules. Soft shapes usually refer to fluidity, going with the flow, wholistic thinking.
Other symbolic references:
* stripes: from the 1960s: daring, testing boundaries, rebellion, disturbances. Now: patriotic or tribal, socially conservative, multi-dimensional. In the flag, the red refers to valor and hardiness (and also the British), while the white strips that cut into the red are symbolic of liberty. White is also the color of innocence and purity (i.e. not corrupt). The blue is supposed to signify vigilance and justice, but in this design, green is the predominant color. Green is the color of growth and fertility. Turquoise adds a little spirituality as well as hope.
My little signature in the right corner does not appear on any pillows, blankets, duvets or shower curtains to keep to the tradition of home decor. All the other prints and products have my signature.
The background green is: #00581b
The outside light mustard border is: #ffe0aa
The red is: #df0001
The turquoise is: #1bc5d2
The light sand color is: #fff4e4
