Neuron City
CROSS STITCH PATTERN, DESIGNED BY Barbara Ana Designs
What we love with Barbara Ana, is that one creative idea in a design always leads to another, as if she loved that element of the previous one so much, she feels the urge to expand and build upon the idea, in a never ending chain of creative designs where each pattern somewhat triggers the next one.
Thus her recent Toxic city flower pot design, with its beautiful harmonies of orange and aqua blue on a grey background fabric, led her to experiment more with those harmonies, creating even more vivid contrasts and a darker, chalkboard black fabric. Gone is the vase, replaced with a brand new creative idea, a neuron, standing tree like on its base, with its top expanding into wild, almost pyschedelic motifs.
While the center is abstract, possibly a single globular watching us, surrounding it is a more familiar world of exotic flowers and miniature landscapes. Other of the designer's leitmotifs are present too, such as the heart and the keys.
