Thin vertical stripes in apple red and cream alternate in a tight, rhythmic pattern across a plain ground, creating a classic ticking stripe reminiscent of historical French textile traditions. The precise, evenly spaced lines establish a calm, orderly mood through their hypnotic repetition and restrained palette. Printed on smooth white card stock and made to order, artwork on the front, blank inside, envelopes included in every set. A handwritten note that arrives as an independent artist's work.
