Almond Blossoms is a stunning masterpiece painted by Vincent van Gogh in 1890. The painting was inspired by Japanese printmaking and depicts white almond blossom branches against a vibrant blue sky. Van Gogh created this painting as a gift for his brother and sister in-law to celebrate the birth of their son who they named, Vincent, after him.
The Artist Series artfully transforms paint strokes into paper strips using the ancient art of quilling. Each card takes several hours to make and reimagines a famous work of art into a magnificent greeting card that can either be sent and shared with loved ones or kept and framed as the work of art it is.
