Sketchbook Development

Few samples of development so far...

 With looking into my theme of the natural under water habitats I have been attracted by their intricate lines and arrangements together with the natural embellished and decorative surfaces creating pattern and texture. I am hoping to explore more in-depth with my approach to detail and mark making working off my images from my development and presenting them in a range of different fabric manipulation.          

Observational drawing 

looking in depth at sea weed creating patterns and mark making.  

Mixing together a range of mixed media exploring shape and structure into my designs. Developing embroidery detail, patterns and texture. Maybe adding a touch more of colour will highlight and capture the delicate but yet dynamic outlines of patterns and my approach to detail.
