I am a recent graduate of Staffordshire University with a First Class degree in Surface Pattern Design. During university I have been building upon my skills in textile and surface pattern design to build a diverse portfolio of designs. I am highly skilled in illustration, in many styles and media, layout design, and computer aided design. I am seeking graduate opportunities such as internships and employment within the area of print and textile design for fashion or interior markets.
Projects
- Final Major ProjectMy final major project at university was based on flora and fauna of southern africa, focusing mainly on reptiles, inspired by a personal trip. Each element was meticulously hand drawn or painted and developed on Photoshop to create an interesting repeat layout. The wallcovering and fabric collection was aimed at a high end market through detailed motifs, a sophisticated colour palette, and luxurious fabrics.
