Thin vertical stripes in smoke grey and white create a rhythmic, hypnotic pattern that spans the entire composition with mechanical precision. The lines evoke the texture of traditional ticking fabric, a utilitarian weave rooted in English country cottage aesthetics, rendered here as pure graphic abstraction with subtle warmth beneath the cool tonality. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
