night blooms

Black and white prints are a perennial favorite of mine, and these "night blooms" will add a graphic touch to your day.  This print was painted with a black gouache and I had a wonderful time painting this.  Can you picture this as a wallpaper, lining a wall in an entry or a powder room?  Black and white are palette cleansers, bold and timeless.

Ah, black and white, it's a combination that makes even the most unimaginative stripes look crisp and fresh. Why is that, I wonder.
I love your little bells, it's such a whimsical pattern...

Lovely, I'm enjoying print week! Yes, that would be a cool wallpaper or if you didn't want to be so bold, a lampshade.
