Stylised Patterns

I have just received my brief on topics I can choose for my Art exam (Unit 4)

The top three topics in my opinion are Stylised patterns, Sculptural pieces and Textiles techniques.

The one that I think I will choose is 'Stylised patterns', there is so much I could do with this topic.

Stylised patterns are Textile pieces often inspired by Natural forms that are developed into stylised patterns such as geometric shapes, diagonal lattices, parallel undulating lines and arabesques.

These patterns are so neat and tidy, I will have to practice stitching in a precise way but I may also experiment with my embroidery techniques and make the stitching look more rustic and rough.

I have looked at appropriate examples to use as inspiration for when I produce my own work.

I love these fabric collections on http://www.calicocorners.com/category/landingpage/keywest.do.

It is bright, bold and colourfull and really stands out. I want my work to have the same Wow factor!

I also like this collection on http://www.calicocorners.com/category/designer+fabrics+for+the+home/more+fabric+collections.do?leftnav=1

Which is titled, sunrise. The patterns are really beautiful and look like Indian inspired patterns.

I could also introduce animal prints as they will stand out quite a lot. They will add a natural feel to my work.

These ethnic prints are also really beautiful. Ther is a lot that I could do with these styled patterns.

They look very different to other patterns that I have seen.

The splashes of rich colours also add a luxury sense to them aswell.
