    According to what the Canadian artist told their friend the seller, this vintage piece was created in the 1968-1969 window. A magnificent abstract Psychedelic Hippie Needlepoint, with unique shapes and color combinations. What i found even more remarkable about this creation, was that it was meant to be hung in the diamond shape - from a corner and not the more expected square. So therefore, this circular artwork has a definite top and bottom! A true relic of the era that speaks to the times.

      Beautiful! it looks more like a DMT or Ayahuasca experience than an LSD or Psilocybin one.
