traditional Indian elephant and flower designs?
Not only is a mandala a spiritual symbol in Buddhism and Hinduism, it is a symbolic representation of the universe with the world. Since flowers are representative of the basic form of a mandala (circles), I've incorporated a few different varieties as additional graphic elements in this brightly-colored design. While creating this fabric, I was imagining these beautiful giants (the elephants) strolling through the gardens as they live together in perfect harmony.
