About this work

This drawing shows bright flowers in a neat pattern. The flowers are mostly red poppies with some purple and blue ones. There’s a border with tiny dots and swirls around the edges. The paper looks old and yellow. The flowers are arranged like they’re meant to be stitched. The design looks like it could be turned into embroidery. The colors are simple but stand out. If you like this kind of floral design, look up filigree next.
