Pool Party Patterns!

10/28/2018

I designed my "Floating World" and "Pool Rings" pattern designs with both this week's colour palette challenge in The Colour Gang and this week's Pool Party people brief in Folio Focus 2018 in mind. Luckily the colour palette and theme worked for both! I wanted to give the feeling of dreamily floating in warm water...winter's not even here and I'm looking forward to summer!

"Generic" Designs for This Week's Creative Challenge in The Colour Gang...Far from Boring and Not Really...Generic!

This week's challenge in The Colour Gang was to design "generic" occasion designs for multiple uses. So here are 3 new designs, each with a simple (but fun!) colour palette. I really pictured them as packaging on those beautiful artisanal chocolate bars I see in markets and foodie shops! And make no mistake, "generic" doesn't mean boring and well...generic! Contact me if you are interested in licensing these (or other) designs!

Alternative Colour Palettes for the Festive Season!

This month's creative challenge in the Colour Gang was to get away from the "standard" festive colour palette of green, red and white and try using an alternative palette for a festive design...Here is a snowflake motif that I re-coloured using bright purple, pink, blue and red. I know It's festive, but does it still read as Xmas? What do you think?
