Hello, my dear friend,
I have put together my geese pattern and here it is:
It wasn’t as difficult as I had expected, but I did have to repaint the geese’s white digitally. So I suppose this is a mixed media pattern. Once again, I find myself leaning toward digital work, as you’ll see later. Instead of resisting the urge to change when it arises, I’ve decided it’s better to embrace it and follow my inspiration.
You can find this pattern through Spoonflower and Redbubble and as a digital wallpaper especially for you.
More patterns
I will always love looking at and drawing flowers! Here are the links where you can find these patterns:
White flowers on pink background: Spoonflower and Redbubble.
Forget-me-nots: Spoonflower and Redbubble. I have only uploaded the dark background one so far. Do let me know if you prefer the light cream one!
For this next pattern, I wanted to illustrate a small story featuring a wizard and a raven, framed by white flowers on a dark background.
You can also find it through Spoonflower and Redbubble.
Sketchbook
Working with colors is certainly more time-consuming than using a black liner, but I find it much more enjoyable. I do love color! And I’m proud to say I still haven’t missed a single day in my small square sketchbook!
Other news
I have illustrated a poster for a Romanian celebration in Halle, Belgium.
I’ll be there leading a small workshop on crafting Mărțișor, a spring tradition in Romania. It’s a small brooch with a red and white ribbon celebrating the arrival of spring.
If you want to join, you can find all info here on the website of Cultural Center ‘t Vondel.
That’s it for now, I will see you next month!
All the best,
Ema
