This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Woman of Biskra by Marie Caire-Tonoir shows a gorgeous woman from the town of Biskra which is located in the country of northeastern Algeria (and the continent of Northern Africa). The woman is wearing her cultural headdress and facial markings with pride and awareness of her culture which has been influenced by the Romans, Arabs and the French. She is a woman of uncommon beauty indeed from her smoldering smoky dark eyes to her pouty lips, and will definitely be a pattern for those who can appreciate beauty in other cultures. No blended colors are used in our patterns. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect. Only full cross stitches are used in our designs.
