Inspiration

It's starting to get in to the swing of summer here in Sydney, and there is beautiful inspiration to be found everywhere, flowers are blooming, the water is gleaming from the sun and the sky is a vibrant blue. 

I thought I would take you for a quick tour around my neighbourhood and show you what I found!

642 things to draw

On my walk today I found this book 642 things to draw, in the Koskela pop up store in Potts Point. It reminded me of being about 7 or 8 years old lying on the floor with my paper and pencils at the ready,  not knowing what to draw and sitting forever trying to think of something that was cool enough. This book takes the hassle out of all of that! You should definitely check out the Koskela pop up store too, it has some cool stuff, it even has a fish pond and a sun roof!

Dries Van Noten Spring 2012

What can I say really? So Beautiful, strange and uber cool.

How great are the prints from the Carven Spring 2012 show? I especially love the zig zag in every colour, very cool.

Balenciaga Spring 2012

I love the prints in the new Balenciaga collection, especially the simple black and white mixed prints, I think it's a great way of mixing prints if you're a little scared of it, without being too crazy!

Mailing List Competition Winner!

Hi everyone! Long time no read. After heading back from printsource in New York, I've been pretty busy working on prints and visiting China, and I've been a bit lazy on the blog side of things,  I'm going to make a big effort not to let it be so long between posts, next time. Anyway I just wanted to say congratulations to Daniela who won the mailing list competition. Daniela got this lovely little parcel in the post. If you're wondering how I picked the winner I closed my eyes real tight and pointed to mailing list on my screen, after a few attempts where I ended up completely missing everyone, Daniela came up the winner!

3D Printing?!

This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen, click here if you're interested.

I wonder how this may affect textile printing in the future?
