doodle graphics make for home fashions with “sophisticated funk”

my print and pattern process always starts with my freehand ink drawings. sometimes i pull an element out of those drawings and that motif can take on a life of its very own. and sometimes i just like to go back to basics and and leave a drawing as is. these examples from my collaboration with DENY Designs do a little of both. many of these designs are just as they were originally drawn; some motifs have been manipulated into unique patterns. i think they are all fabulous!

I call it Functional Sculpture…because it is!

The entries for the HP Ultrabook Bag contest wrap up this evening and I just posted my second design! Did I mention that another favorite Project Runway designer is the spokesperson and judge for this contest? MONDO GUERRA! His aesthetic just really speaks to me!

My second bag design is called Functional Sculpture. Everything that looks cool has a purpose. Hoping and praying my two submission make the judges top 40 and then its up to the public to select the TOP 5!
