Fabric Designs

​The Development Of The Designs:

Wanting to understand how different colours, lines, tones, textures, shapes and their directions affect the "feel" of the same painting, I began working on hundreds of my sketches into which I added digitized colour segments of my paintings and apps to see how colour, patterns & textures affect the "feel" of a painting.

By manipulating these segments I am able to create wonderfully interesting designs & patterns.


These become Motifs and some artists who created using patterns and motifs are, Klimt, Escher, Beardsley & Warhol. 

I soon realised that the Motif series can only succeed if the colours remain as those in the original painting.

My technique is digital and technology augments the creative process. The monitor is my canvas, mouse is my brush, my digitized segments of my paintings and apps that provide textures and colours are my paints/media.

And then I saw designs that were well suited to fabrics.
