Phesants, bacon and dead ducks.



A little rough as they were on A3 so couldn't scan them but these are my plans for some tea towels I'm hopefully going to print on Friday. The drawing will be alot more refined as I need to do the colour separations tomorrow and I will try to use a similar green to Sophie's so they tie in. I have 9 tea towels to print and plan on doing lots of practice on news print so I hopefully get 8 or 9 good ones fingers crossed. Which one do people like best? The colour will obviously be a lot smoother in the ink my pens were running out a bit :) I think I like the pheasant feather pattern because I want to make a nice fabric label to go with it that just says "pheasant" on it! Maybe will have a bit more detail in it too.  I also thought it might be nice to use typography (the words on the bacon one would be in a nice font not my scrappy writing haha) on some things to describe foods...?
