Talking to WGSN and industry professionals about my work.

Repeat Print

One of the first prints I completed for the Final Major Project, inspiration came from 17th Century Dutch still lifes, in particular the work of Willem Van Aelst. I loved the intricate detail and realness of the flowers, with the dark, moody backgrounds bringing the colour to life.
