Finding inspiration on morning runs on the Big Island of Hawaii. So many unusual shapes and textures native to the Island all begging to be picked up. I almost tripped a few times on my own feet.
Sharing my inspiration ~ journal page
Playing with shapes, colors and different textures found and finding inspiration for pattern making.
Playing with ideas and having some fun. I am not sure how the paint chip pattern came into play, but why not! I try not to think too much, but just have fun putting together the pieces of the puzzle. These patterns are all a work in progress, left to sit and be tweaked upon later.
For me , finding inspiration is all about starting and getting the creative juices flowing. Some patterns I will love, others, not so much. It is all part of the pattern making process.Sometimes they just need a few days to sit and wait to have fresh eyes upon them.
All patterns contributed to #365 patterns on Instagram. Come on over and join in.

Love your inspiration page Julie! Such a great way to start making motifs =)
Love the three patterns, Julie. They|re great, no need to change anything.

my personal favourite is the paint chips one… like how it def comes from the same inspiration but isn’t so literal 🙂
I also love all the natural elements you collected for your inspiration.. the pic with tha white background is gorgeous!

Thank you Mary! You made me laugh, but i like it! i was just thinking about you the other day- will have to drop by your blog for a visit. Hope you are well, Julie
Love the colours, shapes, patterns, inspiration….beautiful and inspiring!
Michelle- I think I forgot “e” for #atozflowers! Ah well- I used a bit of creative license thinking that some of these could pass for F-floss flowers. Thanks for dropping by!
Your work is so beautiful and I love the colours. And I really love the squares!
Thank you Lenore! I am loving the whole process.
you’d make a killing at the keahou market with these…or you could just hang them on the wall!! love it! (and yes, you were tripping over your feet…haha)
Oh I can see myself working the market in my “retirement’ years…mark my words!
