Part of the French Summer collection, this oleander, watercolor, vintage fabric features hand-painted oleander blossoms. You land in the set of the movie La Piscine from 1969 - You are immediately drawn to the iconic blue of the Mediterranean Sea, the traditional tiles and the elegance of this bygone era. You channel your inner Romy Schnider with sleeveless tops paired with capri pants and a-line dress, in bright colorful prints, as you walk on the shore.

Hey there creative soul! Let me tell you about this little slice of nostalgia I just painted. Imagine wandering through a Mediterranean garden at dusk, where the air is sweet with the scent of oleander blossoms. That's the vibe here: an enchanting blend of deep, inky blues and soft, blush pinks that dances across the paper. It's like a quiet night in a small coastal village, where time seems to slow down. Each brush stroke whispers stories of serene evenings and gentle sea breezes. This one's for those who find beauty in the past and have a soft spot for the romance of a quieter time. I hope it brings a touch of that dreamy, serene energy to your projects. Let's create something magical together!
