◆ Burst of Blooms - custom frame (non-returnable)

A riot of color and life, this print captures the beauty of flowers in full bloom. With its vivid contrasts and scale, it holds attention.

Why We Picked It
Rich jewel tones—crimson, cobalt, violet—collide and intertwine with deep greens and stark whites create a sense of wild abundance. The composition is precise but also untamed: layered florals set against a dark background, glowing against it The forms are stylized but unmistakably organic, with bold outlines and flat planes of color giving the piece a printmaker’s clarity. A celebration of both nature’s chaos and the artist’s control over it.

Notable Context
This work was created at a time when women printmakers were carving out space in a field still dominated by men. Margaret Patterson , the printmaker was part of the American Arts and Crafts movement, and her work shows a strong Japanese influence—especially in the woodblock technique and use of flat, vibrant color. She often hand-colored her prints, treating each one like a unique piece of art. Her floral prints weren’t just decorative—they were personal, expressive, and bold in a way that quietly pushed against the expectations of the time.
