I have been obsessed with surface patterns for a very long time.
Yes, I had a Laura Ashley phase in middle school too.
I wore her sun dresses and my bedroom was decorated with the Nutmeg Collection.
Wallpaper, drapery, bedding, lampshades, you name it, I had it all.
My room was very coordinated. Tres early eighties.
I looked into making my own line of wallpaper when I graduated from college as a printmaker.
Screen printing was the only option at that time and it still is how most wallpapers are printed.
Even though I found a boutique printer, it was too costly to do a small run of custom wallpapers.
Fast forward twenty years and I haven't let go of the idea.
It has taken a while, but now with so much technology at our fingertips,
with great services and resources like Spoonflower, it is all finally possible.
This is wonderful news Golly Bard! Your paintings and drawings are so well suited to many applications.
