“From floods to canvas: the Northern Rivers Hotel story.”
“This special wedding project was such a joy to work on. Come see the finished piece!”
It’s been a while since I popped into your inbox, so I thought I’d send a little update about what I’ve been working on behind the scenes.
For the past few months, I’ve been deep in The Accelerator course with The Print School in Sydney, learning more about surface pattern design — and I’ve absolutely loved it.
I’ve been creating hand-painted designs and learning how to turn them into beautiful, seamless patterns that could be used on fabric, wallpaper, and stationery — all the things I love!
It’s been such a fun process — challenging at times, but it’s opened up so many creative ideas for me, and I feel really excited about where it’s all heading next.
Here’s a little peek at some of the designs I’ve been working on — I’ve popped a few photos above & below, including some behind-the-scenes shots of the process from sketchbook to finished pattern.
I thought you might enjoy seeing how it all comes together.
Thank you so much for being here and for following along with my creative journey — it honestly means a lot.
I’ll share another update soon with a bit more about what I’ve been learning. Lots of exciting things bubbling away in my studio right now.
