Artwork description:

Ah! sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun,
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done…

(William Blake)

This print is inspired by embroidery patterns on traditional Eastern European folk costume. These types of patterns were originally hand-embroidered on vests, blouses and shirts, or aprons and skirts. I’ve always been fascinated by the diversity.
