This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Venus Consoling Love designed from a painting by Francois Boucher shows Venus scolding her son while two putti are pouting in mocking disapproval of the scolding. The colors in this scene are breathtaking with deep teal, shades of green and turquois all combined to create a stunning sky. The golden and bronze leaves of the large trees in the background when paired against the sky also add to the beauty of the scene. Two doves are pictured on the ground near the foot of Venus witnessing the scene. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect.
