As I was creating the patterns that have been featured in my sketchbook and in previous posts I thought about were the inspiration comes from. I've always loved patterns and have been drawing them for years in the back of my school note books. Also, my parents used to buy me pattern colouring books when I was younger simular to the example given below.
Later influences came from geometric design which is something most people would first be exposed to in maths when you learn about shapes and tessellation. These patterns are very pleasing to the eye. Also, from Islamic Art which uses patterns instead of imagery.
The most resent piece of design that contributes to my influences is the art of Blackwork - used in embroidery.
I've used blackwork before to create images through sewing (see above)
