patternpatisserie: July 2016

Please may I ask for your vote?

This is my entry into this month's "Double Take'" Spoonflower/Betabrand Challenge - the brief was to create a design that was either a trompe l'oeil (I went this way) or something that could be seen two ways - like an Escher print.

I painted up a realistic daylily from my garden in watercolour and separately a cut work or lace pattern to look 3D and then subtly 'threaded' the daylily 'through' the background design. It's quiet but I hope not too subtle for the brief!

And what an unusual colour palette for me - I am normally very multicolour so just violet and orange is a new direction.

I will be populating my POD's with this design in the next few days and will do another blog post with all the links.

In the meantime please

VOTE

for me (by clicking on the word vote) - there are a lot of entries and they are shuffled for each voter so thanks so much for taking the time from your day - very appreciated!

A new shop and a wondrous new item!!

Available HERE

I am very pleased and proud to announce that I now have a CURIOOS online shop for a simple but classy array of wall art items namely: Fine Art Prints, Aluminium Prints, Acrylic Glass Prints and the fab new Metal Disk Prints you see pictured herewith.

Available HERE

I am over the moon about these disk prints, I just love their look as a focal point in an elegant room. Only available through Curioos - they are produced using the latest in sublimation technology. This process uses heat to transfer the image into a .045 thick aluminum sheet, allowing for an unparalleled color gamut of the highest of archival standards. Prints are crisp and high gloss, as well as durable, lightweight and water resistant. They are ready to hang with our proprietary 1/2" aluminum shadow mount which allows for seamless installation.

Each print, of all types, also come signed, numbered and shipped with a certificate of authenticity! The disk prints are limited to a small edition of each size - the sizes are 12" diameter, 16" diameter, 20" diameter, 28" diameter and only 5 will be made of the dramatically large 43" diameter size.

Available HERE

As always thanks ever so much for taking a look at my new work - sincerely appreciated - be in touch, there is a contact form in the right hand column of the blog, if there is an item you want but don't see the design of mine you like upon it - I am ever at your service.

CHEERS! Patricia
