Hand painted bespoke print design request

Drawings/illustrations, Paintings, print design

I had a very unique and special request recently. I was asked to create a hand painted bespoke print for a wedding suit.

The print was to include whisky bottles and glasses, and although a little nervous about the idea since I had never painted glass before, I said yes! I absolutely loved this challenging project and would be keen to create another one like this if anyone would like a personalised print.

The client’s favourite whisky brands are included in the print (see below), each element has been created from the original whisky brand bottles. Can you spot your favourites?

Once I had created the back drop for the design. I hand painted the elements that were going on top:

I played around for a while with the placement of the paintings, I wanted to make sure the design wasn’t too busy and didn’t interrupt the background elements too much, the end result is below. The client was very happy with it!

Here are some images of how the print will look once it is on the product… exciting!

The client also wrote me a lovely review, see below:

I recently designed a print for a baby swaddle, which will soon be available to purchase. The swaddle has been designed by a lady in the USA who wanted to improve the environmental impact and practicality of this product. I also helped to start up this business by offering guidance with tech packing, measurements, and fabric properties. I am excited about the possibility of future collaboration. Good luck to Uni Organics.

See pictures below of the product!

New Designers

Recently, I was chosen to showcase my most recent collection ‘Favela’ at New Designers 2017 in London at the  Business Design Centre. This was an amazing opportunity that enabled me to showcase my work to textile and fashion industries and gain lots of inspiration from other talented designers. I’m looking forward to what could be in store for me in the future.

I am also very happy to announce that I will be graduating with a First Class Honours in Textile Design!

My final major project, ‘Favela’, is done! It’s been a long and tiring journey but I’ve enjoyed it so much, and I can’t wait to see what is in store for me in the near future.

After having some well earned rest, my plan is to continue creating designs that excite and encourage me to fulfil my true potential as a Printed Textile Designer.
