I recently watched David Carson’s Masterclass and felt inspired to return to the roots: experiment a bit with my other love – painting. I wanted to find a way to combine it with design. A week later, I looked at fabrics for a specific dress but couldn’t find anything that felt just right, material- and pattern-wise. And so, I found a perfect opportunity to combine my love for painting, fashion, and design, trying to design the perfect pattern for my dress and other uses. Following are several examples of my creations, which began on paper and evolved into multiple versatile fabric patterns.
