Resolution, part two...

It has been about a month since my last post, but I'm trying, I swear! I'm just a little forgetful is all. Well, today I wanted to share some doodles I've done for a pattern making class that I'm very excited about.

My series is called The Hunt and is based around traditional English fox hunting. I've decided to create a story around the characters I see taking part in this hunt: a chicken, a fox, a hound, and a hunter on his mount!

I have inked the first few and scanned them in so I can digitize them and make them into vector objects. For this project, I will be working in Illustrator. I'm familiar with the program but this class has opened up a host of possibilities.

I'm not quite finished with all of my pattern elements, but so far I am liking the style. I can't wait to put everything together! So far I have ideas for a toile, damask, and a couple of stripes, but I need to mix it up. Throw a little toss in there or something.

I love the shapes of the elements! So cool.


That's it for today. Until next time! <(*-*<)
