‘Blodeuo’ Textile Hanging / Linen Throw

‘Blodeuo' (meaning ‘bloom’ in Welsh) had originally developed into a design stemmed from a series of spontaneous, loose and expressive drawings.

The design is also an interpretation of documenting the growth of 'the flower' (tulips and lilies in particular), studying the patterns and shape of the petals from the early stages of bloom, to the latter stages of withering. It signifies the beauty of the imperfect and is an emblem of growth; a continuous journey throughout life which also resonates to my personal journey of becoming an independent artist in the rurality of North Wales on the Llŷn Peninsula.
