rose motif coffin
The south west of England, Devon and Cornwall, attracts many very talented artists who ply thier wares in craft stalls, markets, barns and sheds.
This artiste has taken box-painting to the edge of the mortal coil. With a pleasant pastel green coffin sporting a cottage-style rose motif on top and as a base-side border. The artist made me smile and think of burial in new ways.
Excellent work!

thanks friend of happy frog
The coffin colours made me think of you, I thought maybe a lilypad motif on the pale green?
The blog text-colours are going to take a while to sort out and will be greys and teals when I’ve worked out which bit of code colours which bit of text….. lots or guestimated trial and error to come.
This isn’t the design that my niece is fermenting for me – this is all my own work because I liked the protograph of stonehenge on the horizon being circled by tourists in the rain, with umbrellas
