Floral-patterned Grand Super-Wax fabric by Vlisco

'A more exclusive version of Super-Wax, rich in colours and bubbling, and printed with a gloss finish. The most defining (and beloved) feature of a Super-Wax is its duo-colour “bubbling” print effect...

...Grand Super-Wax is a luxurious twist on the original, using Vlisco cotton satin. Grand Super-Wax is made using a highly-unique wax printing technique unlike any other in the world: every piece is created with an unequalled and extraordinary level of care and precision.

First, a design in liquid wax is printed on cotton satin. A base dye such as indigo soaks into the cloth around the wax, leaving behind a deep, intense colour. The magic of the ‘wax-breaking’ during the printing process results in a large, irregular pattern of vein-like bubbles throughout the design.

One single piece of Grand Super-Wax goes through an average of 27 total step before it receives a final gloss finish, and a select number of Grand Super-Wax fabrics are covered from edge-to-edge in transparent glitter.'

Fish linocut pattern in two colourways, another Spoonflower design challenge entry for the "block print-inspired" theme. You can find them here! 🐟💭

To make this I vectorised a mini-linocut print of a fish I made a couple of years ago... The block is only about 4cm or so wide. Just a little fella.

I considered using the boat too, but it didn't really work out.

It was fun, my plate has been rather full lately but I want to do more printmaking... (insert joke about printing plates)

Candy Woodcut Cats

I made this for the Block-Print Inspired challenge! The cats were my second attempt at a block print style- the first didn't really sell the look. I made four custom cat brushes and used them for several designs, but the simple cat stack here won out. In these colors, they kinda remind me of jellybeans!

You can vote here on Spoonflower. Thank you!

Throwback from my last job. Process steps for a repeating pattern, from watercolors on paper to the final garments.

A couple of colorways for Clouded Tiger that I particularly like. I do love that golden color, it's really useful when you're trying to tie ccontrasy colors together in a design.
