Collection: “Japanese Tea Garden”
I have been inspired by the old customs of Japanese culture. I have admired the
power of women through grace and elegant discipline. I believe beauty first begins
outdoors as is brought up constantly in Japanese art. I have tried to pull in as much
beauty from the outdoors as possible through print and trims using a 100% cotton.
My collection is telling a short story from day to night of a woman that watches over
two identical twins throughout the tea garden.
