Yes it's that time of year again my second Christmas or Winter window for Karavan-Eco in East Dulwich.
This year I was going for a simple design that hugged the edge of the two windows leaving a good space available for the products to be clearly seen and displayed.
I decided to go with the essence of winter woodland which would accommodate my usual scribbly style of drawing perfectly.
After many different renditions, colour options and compositions I resorted back to my initial idea and kept it black. The thought of adding too many colours would have overly complicated the entire design and there is a crispness to the overall appearance as it has been so intricately cut. This is an aspect of the process which is very difficult to visualise when you are working on paper. Trying to understand and interpret how thick the drawn line will scale up to, will it be too overpowering or simply be lost when standing from afar.
The Images taken in the evening show the design with a little more clarity I will be adding final design drawings to this page in a few days so there will be more of a transition between the each process involved.
