Tussie-Mussie | Original Australian Floral Art Framed Floral Print It’s bigDid you know that a Tussie Mussie is a small flower arrangement of fragrant herbs and blooms which became popular in Victorian times? . Anyway.. This painting is not a history lesson but rather my 2022, Australian take on it. Its big, its bright and captures a sense of energy and movement that I love.
