doodles, cleaned them up in Photoshop, and made a pattern
I'm a compulsive doodler, and faces are my preferred doodles. About a year ago I scanned my doodles, cleaned them up in Photoshop, and made a pattern to use as a desktop paper and as a texture in my 3D art. For Spoonflower, I re-did the design in its original colors, but using only happy doodles (the original included some darker emotions). Note that each face points in a different direction: turn the fabric any which way and it works.
