Very fine black linework on white background, featuring swooping lines filled with tiny, detailed textures and shapes. A tangle of ribbons swings down to form the bowed heads of two swans. The piece is full of graceful movement and rippling lines amid which the swans are calm and still. There is a precise, Japanese quality to the very fine natural shapes that fill the loops of ribbon. Inspiration was drawn from leaves, feathers, butterfly wings, vines and bubbles. In a swirl of rich detail, the overall piece is still balanced and gives a sense of calm, harmonious beauty.
