Victorian Wallpaper Patterns
Art Filed Under:
Im planning to update my websites and I wanted to give them Victorian inspired designs since Ive been very into Victorian clothing and history recently. I went to see an exhibit on Morris and Co. patterns at the Chicago Art Institute titled Morris and Company: The Business of Beauty this past summer and the designs really made an impression on me. I love how they balance nature and geometry. I wanted to recreate some of the patterns to use as tiled backgrounds on websites and possibly for illustrations as well. It turned out to be much more challenging than I thought! You can read more about the process on my blog.
