New Restoration -Vintage Paris French Street Scene Tablecloth 07/08/2011

Picture
Don't know who the designer of this tablecloth is, but it was really inspiring to re-ink the graphics - brush and pen strokes just flowed naturally within the lines...Available on Etsy, for closeups, and the original colors,  click the pic.

I used a tint of Chinese Red (Dharma), which is a warm peachy pink I would call sandstone, rather like a Frank Lloyd Wright desert tan. Flamingo, dark green and chartreuse complete the color.

thanks for the comment on my neglected blog! Just learned this tablecloth is in Glasell's guide on pg 136 - only she calls it Victorian...
