Wrapping Paper

Bonsoir,

Tonight I have been mostly working on wrapping paper designs for a competition at Frinton Press. My housemate Marius urged me to give it a go. I was so tired when I got home tonight, I didn't think I had the concentration to eat dinner (yummy meatballs and pasta) let alone working out how to do repeat pattern on photoshop.

It was actually a little less daunting than I thought, and was really rather enjoyable. I'm a little concerned the lines are not thick enough due to shrinking the original drawings. The deadline was tomorrow but they extended it to next week so I still have time to do another design, while tweaking the ones below.

Here they are in repeat:

Russian Fish Doll.......
Mexican Wedding.......


I hope you like them!?

  1. Really love the mexican wedding paper :)
    ps. I went to Falmouth too (illustration) and remember some amazing wallpaper prints in the fine art show (think this was 2001/2002?) which this reminds me of.

  2. Thank you Kindly Ross. I graduated from Falmouth in 2008 so sadly wasnt there in 2001/2002. What an incredibly inspiring place though. I miss it very much.
