Dolona Roberts’ trademark is her portrayal of the backs of Indian women draped in colorful and intricately designed blankets. The blankets are not meant to be literal representations of actual designs but unique patterns of her own creation. Each blanket is a combination of geometric forms including stripes, zigzags, and diamonds. The fact that no two are alike is a testimony to her skill in arranging patterns, colors, movement, and form.
