Lindsay Nohl : Olive Flowers
Close-up of the inked detail
I have been spending quite a bit of time working in my sketchbook these days. I spent my Friday night sketching away amongst a bunch of talented people. We worked through the night on our different projects and I found myself craving a little bit of hands-on art making rather than my purely digital process.
I did a pattern the 'good ol fashioned way' this time, where I inked each layer separately, then compiled them together in the computer and colored them.
The repeat tile
I'm really enjoying letting the inky brush strokes show on these and backed by a dark background you really see it.
This pattern is inspired by the olive flower. I really like the shape of the leaves more than anything, so I did something a little viney -- reminiscent of a wall paper pattern.
And here it is repeated
