Rice Paper: Tiles

Two souls live side by side in this collection. One is the world of ceramic patterns: blue-and-white azulejos, Italian maiolica in sunny yellows and greens, patchwork mixes, tiny mosaics, star tiles, hexagons and elegant scroll motifs, many laid out as ready-to-cut grids of single tiles. The other is a series of illustrated village scenes with matching cut-out elements — rustic facades, green shutters, stone arches, flower pots, plus a few woodland and seaside subjects — perfect for building layered compositions. Apply the rice paper to wood, furniture, trays or candles and let the tile patterns wrap the surface with that refined, distinctive finish only rice paper can give; the printed grids also make quick work of faux-tile panels on kitchen boards, boxes and coasters.
