digital wallpaper with squid and things

I've finally gotten around to doing a post about my first batch of digital wallpaper and I'm really excited to share it! You should have seen me when it was coming out of the printer, I was jumping like a child. Despite the very grumpy technician who I'm hoping doesn't blog or I probably won't be doing any more wallpaper. 

Here are some first examples - SALAMANDERS, SQUID & SLUGS.

My lovely housemate Louise modeled them in front of our house (technically we borrowed our neighbours' door since it's more photogenic).

It makes such a difference to see them on a big format like this and I'm looking forward to where it takes me next. The print on the brown wrapping paper is pretty effective I think so maybe I'll make a line of wrapping paper! Definitely a good time of year to do that..
I have a big deadline coming up on Tuesday so you shall hear from me later!

So I've been moving forward with Photoshop a little bit and I'm finally getting more comfortable with it. About time! Here are some examples of playing around with multiplying the same ink drawing countless times. 

Next time I'll remember to add the background before flattening the image.

 

ALSO. Today I've digitally printed my first ever actual wallpaper, I'm so excited about it! I'm afraid you'll have to wait until next time to see it..
Finally trying to come up with a brand name, too. Stay tuned!
