This summer I saw the new film version of Far from the Madding Crowd and then read the book by Thomas Hardy. They inspired me to draw this design, Shepherd, also available in my spoonflower shop.

Lebanese Matryoshka with less Tantour showing


Lebanese Matryoshka

Because sometimes you feel like a headdress, sometimes you don't, I have created a new version of my Lebanese Matryoshka with less of the Tantour showing. She is called Lebanese Matryoshka and the one with the entire Tantour showing is entitled Lebanese Matryoshka with tall headdress.

Peace,
Amy

Cuban Matryoshkas

Cuban Matryoshkas
Hello! To accommodate the richness of Cuban culture I have created two Matryoshka; Sienna and Violet. Here are some images I found on the web while researching Cuban culture.

The basket they are carrying is a blast from a past series of drawings that I will be bringing back soon in addition to a new one for that series. Any guesses as to what series that might be?

Peace,

Marshallese Matryoshka

Marshallese Matryoshka
Hello! Now listed in my shop are prints and a downloadable coloring sheet for my newest drawing; a Marshallese Matryoshka. I hope you like her! :)

She is inspired by the Marshall Islands, a rich culture in need of respect and preserving. The Marshall Islands are one of the places at risk of vanishing due to climate change, rising temperatures and waters. While doing my research for this culture along with images of this culture, I also found many articles and speeches on the topic of climate change and how it is directly effecting the Marshall Islands. I have pinned a board of images of the people and their islands and videos about how they are on the front lines of climate change. Let us hope the changes to come will be in the hearts and minds of our world leaders of governments and industries to address these problems and save and preserve our Earth and her inhabitants.

Peace,
Amy

Lebanese Matryoshka

Lebanese Matryoshka
Hello, I have completed a Lebanese Matryoshka! It was a bit of a challenge incorporating the Tantour headdress into the Matryoshka shape but it gave me the opportunity to include my cloud motif in the background. The sky surrounding her fit in with the nature, growing out of the earth- mountain and even tent feeling I was getting while drawing her. I received an anonymous request to draw her asking that the Lebanese flag's red and white striped colors with a green cedar tree be incorporated. So the colors are in her outfit and her jacket is green and also an abstract shape of the cedar tree. I have pinned a board of images I found on the web while doing research for her here. Also, I have listed my Lebanese Matryoshka prints and coloring sheet PDF in my shop. I hope you like her! :)

Peace,
Amy

French, Bigoudène Matryoshka

French Bigoudene Matryoshka
My thoughts and prayers are with the people of France this week. I am greatly saddened by the terrorism they've endured and heartened by their unity and strength. I drew this French, Bigoudene Matryoshka by coincidence this week as it was next on my suggestions list. Vive la France!
