Hallmark Placement

Today was my first day on placement, had a really good day:) the sun shinning just topped it off. Working with laser cut designs = perfection.
Really need a laser cutter of my own in my life, best get saving.

Ice Cream

I love this ice cream parlour with every flavour you could possibly imagine. I am going to develop a colour pallet based this theme for a new collection of surface pattern.

Graduation

Yesterday I graduated from UCLan And won the Deans award to creative contribution to Surface Pattern:)
We were lucky enough to have nice weather and the whole event was lovely. I'm going to miss Uni but am very excited for the future!

British wild flowers

Just starting to do some watercolour painting today. I'm going to study wild British flowers to base a new collection of patterns around.
A lot of the wild flowers get forgotten as people focus on more exotic plants. I feel this collection will evoke a sense of nostalgia and a reference to country living and wildlife.

More pictures of studies coming soon.

Pretty Pastels

Today I have been working on developing the wild floral collection. I have enjoyed working with this colour pallet and could see these prints on textiles and stationary.

Tell me which is your favourite?

Wild Florals

I have been working on some designs based on wild flowers using a pastel colour scheme, this afternoon. Let me know what you think. I have added some acidic green to the pallet to make it more vibrant.

Flora

Finished the first illustration of many, so many ideas for application to pattern and stationary.
The brief for the Tigerprint design a day competition challenges you to work with a restricted pallet of black and white.
Think it looks pretty good without colour but might try adding some watercolour on CAD.
I shall keep you guys posted on my process as I develop this further.
