This print titled Pinkwash for Vimma Company was created by painting with a dry brush on textured paper – you can see a lot of movement in the pattern. After digitizing it, we turned it into an over-sized stripe repeat, so it becomes an artistic version of a classic stripe pattern.
“When I design patterns, I like to incorporate the unique markings of imperfection. We spend so much time in front of screens, that disengaging and creating something tactile is important for well-being. My design process often starts with a hands-on approach, so there’s authenticity in the making process. Continuously experimenting with different materials and processes keeps my work evolving. Changing the tools changes the outcome.” –Elizabeth Salonen
