A pattern of hand-drawn leaves in bright pink and teal. Where they overlap, the colours darken.
Inspired by patterns from nature. This is something I learned at art school; to look at nature and see the beauty in it, but also the repetition, the pattern.
I like to draw patterns that are botanical, but more cheerful in colour and simpler in form. I freshen them up, as it were, and make them into something different, while still retaining the natural motif.
I like to be close to the natural world. Even when I am in the city, I like to have greenery around me. I also love animals and regularly visit the city's biggest park.
The way I drew this pattern is free hand; I built the pattern by positioning the leaves movingly on top of each other.
So the image is not tight, but playful.
For people who want a fresh pop of colour on their wall. Also very suitable as cheerful wallpaper.
My work distinguishes itself by strong colours and clear shapes. I work with ecoline, ink and pencil, but I also like to cut and paste.
I get my inspiration from nature and like to daydream. Animals and people sometimes seem to melt together in these reveries.
