Follies

Follies, a piece that I've been working on the past few days has probably been the most frustrating piece I've worked on in a while. I think it was the pattern on the dress that drove me insane. That amount of detail, and feeling like you aren't really making any progress was what got me. I wanted the pattern to look like decorative tile and there were at least 6 colors in each part of the pattern, which I had to work into. 

Once it was done, however, I was very pleased with it. I'm not sure if its the silhouette that I like, or if the pattern is what makes it, but the elegance of the piece as a whole makes me super happy. I'm going to submit it for a test print run to see how it turns out. Here's the piece and how it would look in situ. Images of interiors taken from Real Living Magazine and Restoration Hardware
