Hello, friends! This week is crazy enough I don't what, if anything, I'll get done between here and mid-September. Just bear with me, and who knows, maybe you'll get the delightful surprise of regular posts. Maybe I'll collapse into a shivering ball of anxiety. Who can say what the future holds!
In keeping with the recent theme, I saw Tanya Heidrich's work on Instagram and saved it to think about later. Tanya is a black & white illustrator and pattern designer. They posted the half finished pattern below, allowing me to piece together roughly how I could achieve similar results.
Feeling like I had the basic idea, I got to work laying down some pencil guidelines. I went with a vaguely face shaped pattern in the center, and then I inked it up.
The pattern is alternating simple squares and beveled tiles. Or at least that's the best way I have of describing it without just drawing it in front of you.
I went with a pretty simple white/hatched/black pattern, but I am thinking of revisiting this pattern with different hatching styles and maybe some color.
