Working 9 - 5: Vacation in Hawaii
A Hawaiian vacation print for Seed. The scenes were all painted separately in watercolour on textured A4 paper. I used colours which were not correct but as contrasting to one another as possible. The pictures were then scanned into Photoshop, and each colour was 'picked out' (made easier as they were contrasting), placed in a different layer and re-coloured until it looked right within that month's range. My favourite image above, and the finished repeat fabric artwork below. The resulting shorts will be posted onto this page in the last week of October.

that is awesome! i am feeling avaricious toward the shorts already :)
Aw thanks, Mad Cat Lady! I know, little boys get to have all the fun!!!
How can a colour be "not correct"? That's rather hurtful of their feelings...
Oh dear, I have never thought of it that way!! In the fashion industry, cruelty to incorrect colours occurs every minute of every single day, yet another aspect of a cruel, cut-throat world!!! ;)
