I pawed through a lot of my sketch books and selected different sketches I had created through the year. I then photographed them and drew over them in illustrator. Instead of using the pen tool I used the brush tool in order to retain that sketchy and hand drawn look. From here I created a pattern tile and repeated it multiple times. I chose to thicken up the lines to make the sketches stand out more, however I had to reign it in slight so as not to loose detail. The final result looks almost like someone doodling on the front cover of a book- this free and fun style of scribbling is what I wanted to achieve, it's how I feel about my practice. I don't take it too seriously and there is a strong sense of me in everything I do.
