![]() Been under the weather lately. We are still at a "balmy" -25C or so, there is ice everywhere, the stores are out of spikes for the shoes and the river wasn't so frozen in 10 years or so. All I want to do is hibernate ....⠀ .⠀ Some watercolors turned into a repeat. I wanted to paint some big bold moody florals, but I ended up with some small and not-so-moody ones....⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #patterndesign #surfacepattern #surfacedesign #printandpattern #doitfortheprocess #artlicencing⠀ #creativelife #loveforart #patterndesigner #printdesign #designprocess #doitforthegram #fabricdesign ⠀ #textiledesigner #wallpaperdesign #stationerydesign #patternlove #textile #textildesign #fashionprint #monaiordache #mdidesignstudio February 27, 2019 at 08:46PM via Instagram https://ift.tt/2Vj4qTM

![]() Playing with brush marks to create some simple indigo patterns.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #patterndesign #surfacepattern #surfacedesign #printandpattern #doitfortheprocess #artlicencing⠀ #creativelife #loveforart #patterndesigner #printdesign #designprocess #doitforthegram #fabricdesign ⠀ #textiledesigner #wallpaperdesign #stationerydesign #patternlove #textile #textildesign #fashionprint #monaiordache #mdidesignstudio February 22, 2019 at 09:54PM via Instagram https://ift.tt/2EpBns6 ![]() I succumbed to the temptation again and bought some more ... art supplies! There was a sale on #ecoline watercolors - only few weird colors were on sale - but I still managed to find something. I bought 2 bottles of grey watercolor - a cool and a warm grey. ⠀ .⠀ I tried them out and so far I am not excited about them. It might be the paper too, but the color did not move. It just sunk mostly where I put it. I still think though that a transparent grey can come in handy. ⠀ .⠀ I have not done this exercise in a while - since I filmed my #skillshare class if I am honest - so I painted these surfers. It is an exercise in painting only the shadow areas on the objects. The subject might seem incomplete, but the mind reads the blanks as part of the form. ⠀ .⠀ I also like that there are no lines - the sketch has a more organic feel. Next time I will use a bold color - either very black or blue, orange, yellow. Something that would make those shapes pop. It totally changes the feel of the piece.⠀ .⠀ If you want to see more, you can check out my class - link in bio. I'd love to hear your thoughts.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #sketching #sketch #painting #draw #paint #sketchbook #instaart #artoftheday #illustrator #painter #onmydesk #creativityfound #getcreative #illustrationartists #artistsofinstagram #watercolorpainting #carveouttimeforart #artinprogress #makearteveryday⠀ #doitfortheprocess #inthestudio #monaiordache February 21, 2019 at 08:46PM via Instagram https://ift.tt/2tv6kF1 ![]() Hmmm ... carrots tablecloth?!

No idea what will come out of them. I guess the future will tell. I am not sure what I will do with these carrots. Maybe I will add some bunnies. Or other veggies. Make a basket of stuff.

I painted some shapes with indigo #shinhan #gouache and recolored them. I will make some coordinate patterns as well. It was a lot of fun to work with the briefs - I just wish I had more time ...⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #patterndesign #surfacepattern #surfacedesign #printandpattern #doitfortheprocess #artlicencing⠀ #creativelife #loveforart #patterndesigner #printdesign #designprocess #doitforthegram #fabricdesign ⠀ #textiledesigner #wallpaperdesign #stationerydesign #patternlove #textile #textildesign #fashionprint #monaiordache #mdidesignstudio February 16, 2019 at 12:56PM via Instagram http://bit.ly/2S66bSb ![]() I hope you had a great Valentine/Galentine day ! .

We are buried in snow, so al I found were some dried hydrangea flowers and a little branch of evergreen.⠀ .⠀ I used only dip pen for the sketches; I vectorized them and made few repeats. This week is the "indigo" week for #exploreflorals @victoriajohnson_createexplore - and I am way behind making new stuff. So meanwhile, I recolored this pattern and made a little greeting card. Or it could be a wall print. I think it looks good.

A bicycle! With flowers no less! .⠀ .⠀ I don't sketch bicycles - too complicates, they end up too crooked etc etc etc. IT must be the flowers, because I don't mind it even if it is crooked!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀ #sketching #sketch #painting #draw #paint #sketchbook #instaart #artoftheday #illustrator #painter #onmydesk #creativityfound #getcreative #illustrationartists #artistsofinstagram #watercolorpainting #gouachepainting #carveouttimeforart #artinprogress #makearteveryday⠀ #doitfortheprocess #inthestudio #monaiordache #creativebug #cbchallenge #creativebugchallenge⠀ #cbclass #carolyngavinclass #cbdrawaday #carolyngavin31daychallenge February 12, 2019 at 07:54PM via Instagram http://bit.ly/2GFfXZB ![]() Some winter squash from the #creativebug challenge.
