‘Mother and Child’. Another piece inspired by the images of Leroy Clarke’s paintings. Here I illustrate the bond between mother and child, and also make reference to the popular corkscrew, knot hairstyle by the ‘dentil’ symbols used on the heads of the women.
You can find this scarf and many more by visiting my site.✨

‘Woman Vibrations’, another inspired by Leroy Clarke, and his use of consecutive lines depicting motion. They could be curvilinear, zig-zag, or straight! Here, I use them as the gentle sway of a woman’s walk!
