Work in progress #ippweeklycreate
Today's Photoshop background collage of the single sketch made in #ippdailydraw - this is a 45cm repeat but just the first stage. I used Illustrator to Live Trace and imported the sketch to Photoshop.
So far I see this as a potential fabric design, it looks quite Chintzy!!
I carried on... and this is what I ended up with last night.

For a professional job I'd do it very differently!

© Gabriella Buckingham - this shows how it might look as a fabric design but the actual print would be quite large not as ditsy ..[/caption]So there you have it. I might now go right back to the beginning and do something with a coloured background. Then again I may find I have to leave this experiment here.
What do you think so far?
This was the original sketch for those that didn't see it:

ohhh - wallpaper would be lovely, especially love the top image before dark was added.
ReplyDeletei marvel at your drawing and now your computer skills x
thanks Tracy - that's interesting! I think there is mileage in doing something like the top image but a better repeat - I think I just need to add a little more to the stems then it will be easier to position things.
ReplyDeleteI like what you've done with the sketch. It would look nice as a wrapping paper too - imagine a big parcel tied up with wide ribbon, lush.
