Childhood Collection

“One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.”

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 

Tread Softly

 

Inspired by a poem by William Butler Yeats, this design symbolises all those dreams a Mothers wishes to spread under the little feet of her children.  A Mother will always surround her children with the best she can give - for there is no greater love.

The design itself is an interpretation of ones dreams, as depicted in the poem, with gold and silver on a blue grey and white cloudy backdrop

 Water Leaves

 

This design is inspired by the Impressionist paintings of Claude Monet - the Water Lillies.  It evokes a calmness and serenity that comes with the birth of new life.  The flow of the water colour leaves symbolises a new Mother as she transcends the beautiful journey through pregnancy and birth.  Each leaf is gentle and tender, yet, just like a Mother, their strength and beauty is inspiring and powerful.

Summer Bed

 

Inspired by the simple things in life.  The poem 'Bed in Summer' by Robert Louis Stevenson is about the innocent young mind of a child falling into bed exhausted after a long summer day playing outside, yet cannot understand why they have to go to bed when it is still bright outside.  The linear design is like a simple and gentle routine, just like a child's bedtime routine. Its soft grey palette is pleasing to the eye and matches any contemporary interior.

Be Like the Bird

 

Inspired by a poem by Victor Hugo.  To a child, a Mother is one of the greatest and most powerful and loving forces in their world.  She is their strength, their life and the sun to which they revolve.  She gives them their wings.
Just like the poem, this print has an air of confidence with strong pops of earthy colours.  Confidence can come and go on the journey through Motherhood, yet just like the bird, deep down, there is inner strength.
