This is one of the pictures I did of the orange coffee pot. If you want to have a look at some of the other sketches then they are all on my flickr page.

This is the yellow bowl. Unfortunately I didn't get these pictures scanned when I was in college today, so I have had to resort to slightly dodgy photos. But hopefully you get the idea of the way I am trying different ways of recording the objects.

I have done several sketches, using different media to record the five key objects. This is the red bowl.

where line and colour meet - lucienne day

Lucienne Day Cushions

I am a little behind on posts I am afraid. We had a lecture on Tuesday where we were discussing our projects. I showed some of the developmental work I had been doing; and Neil, my tutor, said he could see it leading towards surface pattern design and suggested I look at the the work of Lucienne Day. As it happened I had a book out of the library recently on 1950's surface pattern design, so I was very happy to have a little review of her work.

where line and colour meet - skinny laminx

I loved these drawings of bottles Heather Moore posted on her website. Some inspiration for my next project. Her website - Skinny laMinx shows the lovely fabrics she designs and her blog (where I found the image above) is worth checking out too.
