I admire Sophie's sense of colour - turquoise combined with pinkish reds and subtle greens is one of my favourite colour combinations, and her paintings of peonies and decorative Chinese subject matter are particularly striking.

Sophie's work is also available from the La Marelle website as postcards and assorted stationery items. I picked up a few cards from the Readings bookshop in Port Melbourne.

Simply French, simply lovely!
Absolutely beautiful - I love these.
ReplyDeleteI would have to say that is my favorite colour combination too.
I would love this in a big carpet.
