If you’ve followed my work for a while you may remember my animal patterns project which I did in my first year of university. I really enjoyed the project and achieved one of the best grades out of my whole time at uni! However, as it was so early on, I wanted to try out the many areas of illustration and continue to develop my style, so I didn’t go back to it much, until now 😏 you may also remember from this project my obsession with frogs lol.... so to honour that, my first pattern practice to get back into the swing of things is of course featuring my favourite muse 🐸

I used Dylan Mierzwinski’s tutorial on Skillshare to remind myself of the tile pattern technique, which was super helpful!
I’m going to make a story highlight on my Instagram of illustrations you can screenshot and use as phone backgrounds in order to make use of all of these practice pieces! Hopefully a little further down the line I will start mocking them onto products and pitching them to companies.
Let me know what you want to see be made into a pattern next!
