Voyage … inspired by excursion and discovery, voyage is a journey through nature… An adventure land where mustard shades mix with green and turquoise reveal an absence of time and space. Warm earthy browns, sulfuric greens, citronella, and fir tree greens are paired with volcanic grays and burnt browns.
