"The Bloom" is a design by Daren Thomas Magee grounded in the natural landscape of the Southwest. Like a sapling struggling to find its roots in a dry creek bed, a lone branch spreads its leaves to the sky amidst an unforgiving landscape. There is undeniable beauty in this evolutionary struggle – as if the plant's very existence is an act of rugged, defiant, self-determination. Organic cotton. Machine wash. Imported. Approx. 21" sq.
Together with the beautiful border design, the neutral, sun-bleached palette channels the rocky, chaparral-covered hills that roll through the region. It's a bandana that'll feel right at home on any Southwest adventure! Daren Thomas Magee is an Ojai, CA based illustrator, muralist, and designer. Masterfully blending elements of natural, supernatural, and human connectedness, Daren's work is both a perfect commentary and a welcome antidote for modern times. In his own words, Daren explains "The aim of my work is to speak to the space between imagination and reality." 10% of the proceeds of this bandana are donated to a charity chosen by the artist. For this bandana Daren Thomas Magee has chosen Inner-city Arts, which is a non-profit arts education and community outreach organization based in Los Angeles, California.
