Description
Please note: the watermark in the right corner will not appear on any prints or products.
I made this piece out of interest in French folk design. It is an original design, and an original piece of art work. As is usual with French folk art, I use a number of kinds of leaves and ferns, plus a Zebra plant leaf (I had to have that in there!) as though they were all grafted together by a master gardener at Versailles!
This piece can go with an oriental red carpet. The piece also has a little texture like an old tapestry might have to help with the matching of old style rugs and furniture. If you want an old world kind of design with a lot of fine details and butterflies, this might be your ticket. This piece would go great in a Victorian house, or a house with old style furnishings.
Mint green, whites, chartreuse and reds dominate.
As for symbolism, white butterflies typically mean protection, the souls of the departed watching over you, luck.
Mint green is generally a color of healing and tranquility.
Chartreuse is the color of growth and youth.
The zebra plant's symbolic meaning is being hardy and tough, but susceptible to uncaring attitudes, but blossoms with positive energy, altruistic motives and care.
If you are using this piece for home decor and want to know color swatches for matching pillows in solid colors, I have included them below:
* red (estimate as the design is somewhat gradient): #99181c
* lighter mint green: #abf6f2
* darker mint green: #7ac7b3
* chartreuse (estimate): #e4ffb8
* dark red inside lower butterfly: #5f0926
* inside stem: #fffff7
Feel free to contact me if you need help with any more swatches.
