Description

Growing up between urban Kansas City and rural Co. Leitrim gave award-winning artist Rita Oates a profound sensitivity to feelings of belonging, emigration, friendship, and separation. Living in Ireland since the 1960s, her work incorporates people, places, memories, and struggles, but always embodies hope.

Her painting Beyond the Black and White World, reproduced here as a lightweight scarf, captures Rita's optimistic worldview as well as her deep connection to color. She writes, "Two shapes, one black, one white, symbolize an uncompromising, polarized world. Black and white are blended to create soft, gentle greys expanding to a sea of vibrant colours. Red represents love and magenta represent gentleness. The colours symbolize the wonderful world of possibility beyond the black and white world of conflict and constraint."

Comes with a blank greeting card of the original painting that you can include as a gift or frame and enjoy all year long.

"BEYOND" scarf

This is a beautiful scarf - the colors are great,
And it is a good size so that you can do some dramatic things with it as a shawl.
The only down side is that it is so thin that it is hard to keep it from wrinkling, in between wearings, and it is so thin that I would not dare to iron it.
