Iluka Flannel Flowers

The making of the Iluka Flannel Flowers has been a slow, winding journey, but I'm so happy to introduce her to you. The flannel flowers have been depicted in charcoal, soft sage and yellow. I originally met these flowers on a walk through the nature reserve near Iluka, NSW. The drawing of this piece took many months, with multiple breaks. After a long year, I needed a break. After a restful Summer, putting her into repeat was a breeze, completed in a single morning.

The Iluka Flannel Flowers are now available for licencing projects. Please visit my Patternfield page or contact me.

Welcome Pattern Pulse 2

Pattern Pulse 2 by Rachael King is launching soon. The publication promotes the work of 100 talented Australian surface designers; it is the follow up to Pattern Pulse 1, that I was proud to be featured in.

This time around I was honoured with the task of writing the foreword; It tells the story of first meeting Rachael as a newly graduated designer who was ready to take on the word of surface pattern design.
