This is a design Alex and I made on Photoshop for a T-shirt for Harry. I've never really thought of myself as a pro Photoshop user, so I was quite proud of myself. The design is actually a photo of an origami artwork, which we manipulated with lots of layers and colour and saturation. I like it.
In the next year or so, I'm really hoping to run a market stall with Alex, in which we will sell all sorts of things we've made; such as t-shirts & bags similar to this, and hopefully jewellery I've made. I want to do a jewellery design course first though. And I'll make cards and paintings and all sorts of crafty things.
Hopefully my mum will send me pretty Indonesian things to sell too. I'm really excited.
I may also use this artwork in a portfolio of sorts, to help me get into either COFA or SCA. But that story will have to wait until my Ext 2 major work isn't due in a few days. That too is another story...

  1. That is a pretty darn cool image. I like the layers of colour a lot.
    And did you do the painting of the eyes up the top? Because I really like it and it makes me want to play with watercolour again. When I was at TAFE I did a few watercolours in my fashion drawing class I was quite proud of, my first time working with it, but I left my folder there and never got it back. Which I seriously regret because I was really happy with my work!
    Guess I'll just have to start some new ones.
    Also, you know I love the idea of a market stall <3
