Happy Sunday! If you live in New England then you are thinking once again, "when is winter going to end?" I've seen a few people refer to us a "living in a snow globe" and that is exactly how I perceive it today! We are in for up to 24" of new snow within the next 48 hours!!! Incredible!
So I haven't much to share today as I am currently taking Jessica Swift's Pattern Camp which is like a 2-day bootcamp for Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I'm strengthening my Illustrator skills and have already learned a ton which will be put to use right away. This doesn't look like much but it is the technique behind what you see that will improve designing.
I played a little last night with some more of the Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Sprays but haven't had a chance to do too much digitally with the results. The first image I used my Joggles Stencil - Ancient Ruins to spray in multiple layers over the canvas.
Here it is in a straight repeat. The texture is YUMMY!
On this canvas below, I played with personal stencils, gesso, and the Starburst Sprays and really like the effects.
The last image is just a random design that I created using a dyed paper towel as the background and it creates so much texture. I used the Fresco setting from the Gallery to emphasize that texture which is really effective.
Day 2 of Pattern Camp starts soon so I've got to get my student hat on and hunker down inside the snow globe! Have a super creative Sunday and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
