Wallpaper Project: Thumbnail sketches

All the above thumbnails were drawn from the shapes from the first hand done wallpaper, except for the first one which was drawn from Samuel Monnier's work and the Doolittle album cover.




Testing out different possibilities, drawing from the second thumbnail sketch above.




Broke apart the shape from the second thumbnail sketch and ended up with the above shapes.

Introducing colour themes and geometrics. I aimed to contrast the sharpness of the first two with the roundness of the second two, and also I wanted to contrast the solidity of the middle ones with the movement of the outer ones.

I like the way this album cover contrasts organic with geometric. This image seems to find the patterns in life, and looking at images like this one inspired me to take my hand done wallpaper into a more repetitive and flowing set, with sharper shapes.



Again the juxtaposition of gridded and organic images can be seen in Ian Francis's work here.




I had a look at some of Samuel Monniers' work and was drawn to the movement of the bubbles, which I decided to use to juxtapose sharpness with more soft shapes.

Wallpaper Project: Interim Presentation

Each of my hand done wallpapers had a different source of inspiration.



The first one is a visualisation of how music can move you. The parts pointing outwards is the physical movement and the parts pointing in is the internal stirring.



This second is from the word "movement" and the idea of hands as a source of expression. The repitition made this one a likely starting point for a set of wallpapers, but I chose the first one because there was more to draw from it.




The inspiration of this one was drawn from the silhouette I saw one afternoon.



This one was inspired by the way light turns to webs when it shines though the water.

Wallpaper Project: Starting out and Inspiration

Inspiration:

The drawing of the eye and tree above was inspired by the first thing I saw when I woke up. The silhouette of the tree and the tip of the chimney made the shape of an eye (it's not clear in this photo).
