A beautiful ethnic looking tablecloth found in a vintage shop over the weekend.

A weave sample I did contrasting vertical and horizontal....

Also seen in Thakoon's Autumn 11 collection during NY fashion week-





Clashing colours, patterns, textures! Betsey Johnson style....

Pattern Inspiration

This image is part of a piece of work by Richard Galpin.  It is in the V&A in their photographic gallery.  He has peeled away the majority of the photo to leave this pattern.  I like it because of the detail in the areas left, and the clean look of the peeled areas.

 

This is an image I took in the Museum of Childhood at their exhibitions of paper models.  This one obviously hasn't been made yet!  I like the combination of patterns and details, different shapes and also the gaps between the parts.

LOVE FAKE FLOWERS.  They're so beautifully garish.

My image is of a kaleidoscope, something considered boring and uninteresting can be transformed into something intriguing and a complex pattern

The text written is poetry in Urdu language and kind of jokes.

Truck Art

Truck Art in Pakistan, The truck drivers pay a fortune to get their trucks painted. The stylized imagery and bright colors makes the truck lively and fun and attract the customers.

This is a door in Soho, I've walked past it so many times and not realised it was there which is surprising how bold and bright it is!The eclectic colours reminded me of the clash of colours we liked on Friday.
