Hydrangea Study

The #100DayProject kicked off around the web today and I decided to join in. I'm doing 100 Days of Scanography (Image making with a scanner) which I love because of the unique depth of field.

Quick & Dirty Photoshop Patterns

Playing with pattern-making in Photoshop. Pattern Swatches Pattern Samples It's been awhile since I played around with pattern-making. It's super fun. Normally I work in Illustrator but I wanted to focus on making raster based patterns for a Photoshop Pattern-making demonstration. I used bits of my own photos, drawings, stamp work, watercolor, and paste paper to make what you see here.
