By manipulating and layering my drawings on photoshop, I've created a small collection of vibrant scarf designs. Experimenting with composition, I explored the idea of two sets of corners revealing different textures and colours; making the scarf multi-directional. The more spontaneous drawings I created for this collection became the most successful in the development stage. The quicker mark-makings i did in the initial drawing stages have made for the most energetic designs.
I wanted each scarf to incorporate very different elements, so no one scarf has a similar look to another. I ensured this through using a variety of drawing techniques and exploring a range of scales. in one of the designs; I have incorporated photographic elements. This has worked successful when transferred onto medium weight silk; adding vibrancy to the already saturated photographic imagery, giving the collection a contemporary feel.
I felt that working on this minor project for a fashion context has allowed me the opportunity to explore more experimental techniques of drawing and digital design that would have most likely been too loud to put into a repeat for interiors.
