Paradise

Paradise. This where I got my theme from. But it's not all sun, sea and sand! It's all about the birds, flowers, sea life etc!

The fish collection

I have been looking at different types off fish such as tropical, deep water fish and fresh water fish. Looking at the beautiful colours and the shapes and sizes. I have also been looking at corals, shells and rocks to create backgrounds.

Osborne and Little

I have been also looking at the way Osborne and little apply there design to wall paper. I want to find different ways of lay outs for my collections so that there isn't any similarity. Everything's all go now for designing!

Josef Frank

I have been looking at Josef Frank to see how to lay my designs out, looking at the composition and manipulating the images using CAD and hand painting.

Birds

I have been looking at different types off birds, tropical and oriental. Changing the techniques by looking at the birds in a total different way! And adding a water coloured background to soften the painting up.

Inspiration

I have been inspired by Fashion designers such as Basso & Brooke. I love the way they apply colours and the design to fabric which is digitally printed. This links well in to my theme.

The fish collection

I'am looking at all different areas in my theme to create collections. Looking at tropical fish and the tropical sea to create ideas and using my visual research. I have used different techniques to create these paintings. Painting with textures and painting flat creating outlines off the fish. My next idea is to create the look of the sea water using deep colours to create the look and create the bottom of the ocean looking at the deep sea.
