hand-drawn circles, this gray and yellow design shines!
It was fun to design in shades that evoke Pantone's 2021 colors of the year: Illuminating Yellow and Ultimate Gray. I have long enjoyed embellishing letters, artwork and doodles with this atomic-looking Mid-Century Modern star motif. I wanted this pattern to retain a hand-drawn feel so that it has a personality despite the modern elements. Shades of yellow and gray -- with black and white highlights -- makes this pattern dance. It would be terrific on home furnishings as well as mod funky clothing -- imagine a groovy bathing suit, dress or mask! Perhaps as a part of a modern quilt project? There is also something evocative of Viking runes as well, when I look at this print, giving it a Scandi-style vibe. It certainly has movement and verve, and feels grounding and hopeful all at the same time. (As always, if you would like this print in a different scale or colorway, please reach out to me. I will do my best to work with you!)
