Going back to my design roots
 |
| It started off here...a drawing with "permission markers" |
The Graphic Design ones. I have always been a lover of pattern. All of my doodles revolve around pattern. How they evolve and repeat it has always been my forte per say::)
Sooooo late last week, I got an itch to bring out the sharpies and start some pattern drawing. If I am going to do this textile thing, I need to learn to match the patterns in illustrator. So let the practicing/obsessing begin!
I am kind of liking them. The stripe will be a large scale stripe...like 18-20". Does anyone else feel like the "right" striped fabric is always elusive, whether it is the colors or the scale, I am never quite happy when it comes to stripes. I think I am going to design my own from NOW on!
Starting to feel like this textile design stuff is kind of fun.
Happy Monday!
