Hi there, for this project I go for a mix of two different themes or moods. On the one hand, I remember the old curtain of my grandmother with this bold colourful floral Design both the sixties/seventies. On the other hand I was inspired by the 80ies and all the graphic artwork of this time to get a little twist for this project.

So here is the first step: the moodboard and the colors

second step: I was looking for some simple flowers an leaves shapes and a kind of abstract shapes and lines that could fit together for the hero pattern. Here are my drawings:

I chose thicker lines and little graphics to get the 80ies feeling. For the flowers I went for outline shapes and  some coloured blossoms to find the right balance.

So here comes my HERO pattern:

and here are the Secondaries:

next step: Blender Prints...

and some Spot Graphics:

and the summary of all patterns and spot graphics with the naming "Vintage Curtain" and a little story...

hope you liked it.

Thank you Elizabeth for this wonderful class, I really enjoyed it. I love your work.
