Patterns



Back in August, I sat down and did a few experiments with pattern making. The floral at the top was done in acrylic paint in my sketchbook, the clouds were pencil drawn and colored in Photoshop, and the mountain pattern is a dissection and re-piecing of a landscape photo.

Sketchbook : Girls

These are just a few drawings I've done in the last few months.

April


early June



late June

I couldn't decide if I liked her with or without eyes. I drew them in anyway just because I was so excited to tackle those lashes. At first I didn't like it, but it's growing on me.

Closet Inventory : Completed

The project I started this summer if finally over. As much as I hate to stop, I need to for my own sanity. I got into this thing where I tried to recreate it as best as possible. So you'll spot some Mishka (sweater/dress), Betsey Johnson (tights/dresses/cardigan), Marc Jacobs (shoes), Uniqlo (dress), and Zara (everything). I have a problem with getting overly detailed...


October

November

December


Here are a few highlight outfits I got a little too pattern happy, or just generally liked wearing.

F21 blouse, PegLeg skirt, Sam Edelman shoes

F21 flannel, Rebel 8 shirt, KillCity jeans, Vans slip-ons

Sister's old thrifted sweater, F21 dress, Zara boots

Kimchi Blue hoodie, Free People dress, Gap tights, thrifted boots

Pins and Needles blouse, Silence & Noise trousers, Ann Demeulemeester wedge sandals


PS- I may post a single outfit periodically in the future if I really love it. There's no denying that I'll be creating new outfits later on.

Pattern Making : Hair/Girls

I took a break from vectoring to play around with some drawing. Starting with some post-it notes (which I love dearly) and my favorite Japanese brush pen.

I was on the fence about adding in girls, but then I figured there had to be a source for all that hair. Here's the result after playing around in photoshop:




Perhaps I was a bit ambitious by starting with something so intricate. Next one will be a little more simple. Until then...

Teaser : Lola

Sometime around Christmas I completed a little layout job my friend/photographer, Hadar, approached me about in November. Things got a little busy, and although I wish I would've had a quicker turn around on this, I'm pleased with the results. It certainly would've been different had I gone down the initial path of ideas I had conceived.
