Thread Drawings

I stumbled upon Amanda McCavour’s thread drawings, which I just had to share. They are so whimsical and charming. I’ve seen a similar technique by an artist shown at Harbourfront, but I cannot remember his/her name. I also used this technique to create my tree ornaments this year!

Design Solution, Navajo Patterns

I figured out what to do for my four repeat patterns based on Navajo designs for my surface design class. They were created entirely in Photoshop. I wanted to play with the idea of trend, and instead of creating designs that would easily be recognizable as Navajo, I decided to use Navajo designs as inspiration to go down other routes: colour blocking and geometric patterning.
