Picture for Debbie.


I found this picture today while looking for some old work and thought it would be/could be suitable for Debbies bridal shop. Its on A4 paper but thought it could be mural on one of the walls. If not Debbie can always put this in a frame.
I must have done this when i was about 14 or something like that.
Its a copy and can't remember the name of the original artist.

  2. lol. I have hundreds scattered here and there, and several portfolis in the loft needing a home. Mind you, nobody wants to house them because mostly everything is technical drawing and plans so nothing of interest to anyone.
    I was a bit of a copier when i was young hence why its copy. Plus it was created with cheap pencils from woolies and and awful pen.
    Probably not suitable for you wall but i won't ever use and your bridal shop made me think it would be nice on the wall. You could do draping plants with flowers all around it or something like that.

  5. What a great job you did. The original artist was Walter Crane from the book Floral's Feast. I have the original book from 1892, found it in England when we were there a few years ago and it is filled with wonderful Flower folk. I reproduced the original as a miniature book.
