Beauty & The Beast - Taking Photos For My Final Images

For my final images im going to take three images. One image will be of shoes (a pair of heels and some muddy shoes), my second image will be of clothes (sparkly dress, and torn jeans) and the third will be of gloves (pretty [maybe leather] gloves and some muddy gardening gloves).

These are three images I have edited that I had chosen for my final images.

 Craig Fellows has 5 collections of work that he  has designed. His first one from 2008 is titled "A Hen That Struts Like A Roosted Is Often Invited For Dinner". All his patterns feature hens in different patterns and colours to create  really interesting and beautiful designs. With some of the patterns he has created them digitally and in some of them he has hand drawn illustrations and then scanned them into the computer and then manipulated then digitally to add colours.

He uses a lot of earthy tones and pastel colours in his work.

A Hen That Struts Like a Rooster is Often Invited For Dinner (2008)

I really like the sketchy look that his prints has because he has hand drawn all the designs and then printed them onto his materials and fabrics that he uses.

Daisy Heads, Thistles & Oversized Pixels (2009)

I really like his use of colours because he doesn't use really bright colours but it still looks colourful and cheerful. He uses pastel colours so that it doesn't distract from the black pattern and this really makes the design stand out. The tones are quite warm which makes the pieces inviting and eye catching.

Macabre Insects, Orchids & Rich Hues (2010)

Bugs, Bees & Geometric Forms (2011)

I like the patterns that have the insects on them and I like the bees because i like all the detail that is on each bees which make s it look like they are 3 dimensional and not flat.

Feathers, Fungi & Spores (2012)

I really like the Feathers, Fungi & Spores designs because he has used a shadow around his drawings which gives them another dimension and not just a pattern on fabric. 

He makes lots of different pieces, such as Scarves, Purses, Bags Cushions, Greeting Cars, Gift Wrap, Framed Images and Post Cards.
