Reworking Paisley and Insect design

I have now tried to rework the paisley and insect design, but I don't think the first designs are very affective as the images aren't bold enough. But after looking back on past designs I have used this pattern again with the same bird pattern in a past design, I think the extra bit of colour in the background print works very affectively.

Visualisations

I have now started to create more visualisations, because I have had more practice I think these have worked more successfully than the ones I did before.

Paisley and Insect pattern complete

Even though all the edges don't add up together I like the obscurity to it and I think the colours work really well together.

Paisley and Insect pattern

I have now started to create a pattern with both paisley and insects together, I have created this into a brush and will layer this up and use different opacities.

Visualisations

I have now started to create some visualisations so I can see how my work would look on real scale, I thin they work well large scale so you can see the detail well and the birds are bold.

Layered Colour

I have now tried adding bits of colour to my original piece with different brushes, I like the extra bit of colour but none of the brushes seem to work well with my images, they are all too bold and takes your eye away from the bird images. I then tried to use a large brush with a faded affect on it which I think worked better, I will experiment with this more.

Bird Pattern

I decided to put the birds in a horizontal line instead of vertical to see if it was as affective as the past ones I had done and I think it is. I would now like to try the birds with parts of them coloured in to add more colour like the archive piece.
