New Design Challenge: Coppélia
This month’s Chelsea’s Challenge is a little different as it is for a potential Pattern Observer Studio client. We have been in talks with a scarf designer to create a custom print based upon the ballet Coppélia.
“Coppélia is “a comic ballet” about Dr. Coppélius, a doctor who has made a life-size dancing doll. It is so lifelike that Franz, a village youth, becomes infatuated with it and sets aside his heart’s true desire, Swanhilda. She shows him his folly by dressing as the doll, pretending to make it come to life and ultimately saving him from an untimely end at the hands of the inventor. “
The brief is super inspiring and we hope that you participate even if you decide to keep your pattern in your own portfolio.
Revised Date: Photoshop for Designers 1 & 2 Group-Study
Update to our schedule: Photoshop for Designers 1 & 2 Group-Studies have been moved to February 11, 2019. If you choose, you are welcome to start the course on your own and get a head start. Here’s more information on the course:
Your creative spirit does not have to be inhibited by software or the digital art world. The two can come together in an amazing collaborative effort. In these 6-week courses you’ll discover the most efficient and effective use of Adobe Photoshop while creating the artwork that you love to design.
Photoshop for Designers 1 is an intensive course, so we recommend starting with that course and then taking Photoshop for Designers 2 when it runs again in the Fall or you can work through the self-study at any time! Members can register here.
