Work In Progress...

This is just a little of what I have been working on this week. I have been developing a lot of imagery I can work from to then develop into print designs for my first collection of this project and I have now started to use the imagery to create print designs. The three designs featured above are all half drop repeat prints, I feel that they work quite well but they are not completely accurate. I still need to do a lot more drawing for this collection, and re-visit my research to find new and interesting imagery I could use. The inspiration for this project is about celebrating British Culture in a floral and feminine way. This first collection is going to be very subtle taking inspiration from the English country side and British Wildlife. What do you associate with British culture?

All imagery is my own, please ask my permission before using elsewhere.

Developing My Ideas...

My designs for my current project are really developing. I have spent the last week or so experimenting and trying out new techniques. My work seems to have taken two very different forms, so I have separated it into two separate collections.  Here are just a selection of my favorite designs. The designs are for women's wear AW 1011/12. The designs have yet to be put on to a garment flat to get an idea of placement. 

What do you think?

All images are my own please credit if you would like to use else where.

Development Work...

Well I thought I would just share a little bit of what I am currently working on. These are just a few of the drawings I have done. I am going to use them to create collages for placement and repeat prints for womenswear. Still lots of work to do! Hope you enjoy!
