Part of a mini-series of sets mimicking patterned vintage wallpaper with an art piece hung upon it. This diptych is part of a greater collection called "The Rose Garden" which uses floral symbolism to indicate the passage of time and the evolution of memory. The image on the left depicts a recreation of a painting I did as a child, and the image on the right depicts a recreation of a portrait my mother drew of me when I was a child.
