My design project

My first attempt

Recently I as looking at some wrapping paper I had relieved and there was a very cool flower design on it. I wanted to do something with it but it was a small piece and I wasn’t sure what I could do. I do not have a talent for drawing. But figure it I could draw the flower I could make it the colors I wanted. I combated this by photocopying the paper and then tracing the image with a makeshift light box. I then went and got various other pictures of flowers and followed the same process. I am trying to pick flowers with similar characteristics. This way they will look like they may have gone together even thought they are from random places. After doing a few test runs I decided the marker was not the right medium it ran on the paper ad you could still see some pencil lines underneath the ink. I have now decided that I am going to go down and get a canvas and give it a shot with some acrylic paint.
