Namaste is a vibrant figurative art print by the Swedish artist Josefin Tolstoy. As the name suggests, a peaceful female figure is calmly seated, her body made up from a series of solid forms in shades of pink, maroon and earhty red. Set against a striking blue, the composition is powerful yet understated.
