winter anchor

At first glance you may see a flower, or more likely because of the colors snow flakes against a black winter sky. This is not what was my initial intention with this concept. I started with an anchor, one simple anchor which i repeated several times into a full circle. i like the way it was looking so much that i decided to incorporate that into a repetitious design. Since repetition can be rather boring i offset the entire thing, pushing most of the weight to the top corner of the design to the top corner.


When the teacher told us we had to take a simple shape, fill it in and repeat it i was rather weary about the assignment but overall i ended up really liking the "anchor flake" that came out of this.. If we ever find a decent company to do shirts through i may take this design and incorporate it into a shirt. It would more then likely not be that same repetitive design.. i have a few ideas (if i do it)...but well see.

  4. Yeah it definitely could. It all depends on how you do it. You could do it as a repetitive design all over, which is super popular nowadays. Or you could do just one ... but I'm not sure how that would look. But it'd be fun to come up w/ a cool way of doing it and I wouldnt mind helping you. [:

  6. Yeah ... it's not the kind of print you'd want repeated. But a sweater sounds tight. I love me some sweaters. But maybe you should make a t-shirt first ... w/ Coney on it. Thanks! =D
