Reflections of an English Watermeadow

Gabi Bolton creates highly original designs for Fabrics, Wallpapers and bespoke Interiors.
Personal drawings and photographs are often the starting point for Gabi’s designs. These often complex designs are the result of a slow process of building up a patina of texture and tone in addition to the drawing and selection of motifs.

Watermeadow print linen scarf:
Inspired by walks through Richmond Park, one of London’s most beautiful landscapes, a place of woods, ponds and meadows. The watermeadow design reflects these natural elements; trees, pebbles, water, grass and flowers. Inspired by a trip to Tokyo, Gabi’s style has evolved over the years into an invocation of Japanese prints. As Gabi says “In my prints I try to create texture and tones that gives the fabric a sense of age, time-worn and cherished ……. occasionally faded …… a quality in vintage cloth I particularly like. I love using Linen as it seems to hold the memory of touch and has such fluidity”.
