This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Creole Women of Color Out Taking the Air designed from a painting by Edouard Marquis shows three Creole women of color out for a stroll to get some air. They are dressed in formal attire and seem to be enjoying their walk. This scene is different in that it is classy compared to the high sexualized scenes painted when addressing Creole culture and women. 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.
