Floral filigree

About this work

This drawing shows bright floral designs on a light background. There are two curved sections with roses, leaves, and small flowers in pink, red, and green. Around the edges, there’s a border with tiny blue cross-like marks and yellow dots, almost like stitching. The flowers look like they’re meant for embroidery—maybe for a vest or fabric. The way the branches spread out gives a sense of movement, even though it’s just a drawing. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching to see how artists create texture with lines.
