This colorway was inspired by a painting of Lois Mailou Jones called Les Vendeuses de Tissue. I left the title in the original French, but it simply means the fabric sellers. Jones was an amazing artist who painted from early childhood until she was in her 90s. She moved to Paris in the 1930s and later married a Haitian artist. She spent many years living in Haiti and painting scenes of everyday life there like this one. 

This was my club colorway back in March 2021, and I absolutely adore the vibrant colors!

TIMELINE
Please allow 1 week for me to make these for you when you order them.

SPARKLE OPTION
You can choose whether you would like sparkle in your art batts or not. If you choose sparkle, I will include sparkly Angelina and/or firestar that will coordinate best with the colors.

QUANTITY
I show multiple art batts in some of my photos so you can see the small differences between each one, but each art batt is sold separately.
