’Pearls in a hemp leaf pattern on beige-yellow linen-weave by Su_G' (https://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/5517513): created by applying dots of oil paint straight from the tube. © Su Schaefer 2016 See more 'asanoha' (hemp leaf pattern) designs by Su_G. (https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/su_g?shop_selection=tag&tag=asanoha) In the old days in Japan there were master artisans who specialized in painting this design on fabric, which is probably why I wanted to try the same thing: it is very much harder than it looks. Printed nicely on basic cotton (@ 400 ppi) showing good detail of the linen weave as well as the oil paint 'pearls' - see the thumbnail (double click for a clearer view). Asanoha mon (The Hemp Leaf Pattern) The mon of the Maru-ni-Asanoha family represents a stylized hemp leaf pattern. According to some, the plant symbolizes the power of growth (hemp being one of the most vigorous annual plants) and probably for this reason, the pattern is often used on babies' kimonos.
