Petta Thompson

When browsing Donghia, I kept seeing this great art — I loved it.  Later, when I visited ICFF, I came around a corner and saw all these gorgeous wall coverings by Petta Thompson.  I realized we had samples of theirs around my studio but never made the connection between them and the artwork that had caught my eye.
