About Cultured Silk Scarf Illustration
Cultured is a silk scarf illustration inspired by Persian miniature painting from the thirteenth century.

The artwork was created digitally with vector and image editing software. Cultured is prepared for print on demand and suits any standard square size of fabric or paper. The same artwork can also be applied to blanket scarves, pillow cases and framed prints.
