I took my mini Grammar of Ornament, by Owen Jones, out with me today. And I’m glad I did. I only liked at a very few pages. But, oh, boy! Are they rich in content?
I was in Ely for some blood tests (and I bumped into Patrick!), where I also stopped in at the Oxfam branch. Whilst I was heavily tempted, I managed to refrain from buying any new books. Truth be told, nothing in their current t selection really grabbed me, as it sometimes does. 
Whilst awaiting my turn in phlebotomy, I was perusing several pages of Grammar. That’s when I took the pictures that adorn this post.
I like the limited pallete, of cream, ochre, browns, and a little bit of orange. And, as any observant eye will note, there’s a certain kind of organic theme running through the designs that I’ve focused in on.
