Mr. Parkes has long been known for a very particular style of surreal art that is often called “magical realism.” (This is not the same as magical realism in contemporary fiction.) My favorite of Parkes’ works has always been “Gargoyles,” but this homage is more in the style of his “Desert Dreams.” This scene is designed using a half-drop repetition. If, for some reason, ordering this in wallpaper, please adjust the ordered amount accordingly. If you want just one instance of the graphic, I’ve also uploaded only the background clouds under the title “White Clouds (“Double-Dutch” Background).” For easier observation of the entire picture, please see the tea towel version uploaded as "Double-Dutch Tea Towel." Thank you for looking at this design. —— Created in Procreate, circa 2023.
