Petite Curious Maidens
Petite Curious Maiden's is an extension of the Curious Maiden series. The work has emerged from my combined interest in plant dyeing, and the character of the handless maiden. In particular, the maidens brave, open and inquiring approach to the wild and mysterious woodlands which surround her.
