Flattery

In Aesop’s fable, ‘The Fox and the Crow’, illustrates how one ought to be wary of false flattery.  A crow has a piece of cheese in her beak. “Good-day, Mistress Crow,” says the fox, “how well you are looking today, how glossy your feathers, how beautiful you are. I feel sure your voice must also be beautiful, let me here you sing.”  The crow opens her beak to sing, drops the cheese and the fox eats it!

Behind the Design
Daniel Mackie is the artist behind The DM Collection. This series of watercolours is very heavily influenced by the Japanese print makers of the Ukiyo-e period, which flourished between 1670 and 1870. Like those great masters Daniel seeks to create a harmonious accord between a highly stylised form and the flowing lines of nature, creating decorative designs that lift the spirit and warm the heart.

Made in the United Kingdom.
