A Summer of Design.

At the end of our last term we were set a summer project to keep us busy during the holiday.

We were asked to fill an A3 sketchbook with a documentation of our summer and to look for design opportunities in the every day.

The trees in my last post are part of this sketchbook and were inspired by the artist David Hockney and his wonderful "Yorkshire Sketchbook".

My work is a random look at places and events of the summer, Chelsea flower show,  The Tour De France in the UK, walks along the coast and various other ramblings.









On a visit to the beach in Devon I came across a wonderful bed of alliums. Such lovely shapes and colours.













                                                                                                                                                                             



So many ways to draw and paint these majestic flowers. It would be great to develop this theme further




















 I couldn't resist a little play today, green fabric, bleach as a discharge, stitch over the top and making myself stop there.

It's just over a week until term starts, our first brief will be emailed in the next couple of days and the work begins. I just love it!!

Thanks for all your lovely comments, it's great to hear from old friends.

Enjoy your week.
