This floorcloth was commissioned by an artist in Washington, DC. The design is based on rug pattern that the client found but wanted as a flat canvas floorcloth vs. a tufted rug. The background color is Honeymoon. The motif and border colors are Springfield Sage, Turners Yellow, Brown Madder and custom green. A rag-rolled tint was applied on top of the design providing the look of additional texture.
