About this design

What the design shows

The woman faces right in a clean side profile, with a pale face, red lips, and a single curved black eyelash. Her black hair is piled into a smooth bun and held by a large red camellia with a yellow center. Behind her head, a red paper umbrella forms a near-circle. Black ribs radiate from its dark central hub to the outer red canopy, and the curved handle descends behind her shoulder. Her robe is almost black, separated by fine white seam lines and edged with a red collar that frames the neck. One hand grips the umbrella handle near her chest. The design uses broad black outlines and flat red fields, with small gold marks in the flower and umbrella hub. On-skin it is a compact thumb-sized profile on the outer shoulder, umbrella crown toward the neck and robe toward the upper arm.

Placement

Placement and size

The example sits on the outer shoulder cap at about thumb length, keeping the umbrella circle upright behind the head. It will read more clearly at palm size on the upper arm, calf, outer thigh, or shoulder blade. Keep the umbrella behind the profile when flipping sides. At a smaller scale the umbrella ribs and the flower center need simplification before the face outline is narrowed.

Patchwork

Building it into a patchwork

The umbrella makes a compact circular color field, while the robe gives the bottom a dark tapered edge. It can sit in a shoulder collection beside a small red lantern, black swallow, or single camellia. Leave an open rim around the umbrella so its red perimeter does not collide with other bold color. Avoid placing another round frame directly against it, since the umbrella needs to remain the clear backdrop.
