The Surface Pattern Design Journey by Rachael King
We are pleased to welcome Rachael King as our Textile Design Lab guest expert of the month!
On Monday, September 20th at 7 pm Eastern Rachael will share her story “to illustrate how our Surface Pattern Design journey can take us in so many directions and how I have shaped my business to offer many income streams including licensing, branded product, Spoonflower, book sales, tutoring, and guest talks. I hope that it will inspire other designers to find their way to making a credible income source from their art practice.”
A zoom link will be sent out on Monday morning!
Chelsea’s Challenge: Two Color Prints
Welcome back to Chelsea’s Challenge! We took last month off to give people a chance to focus on the Summer of Creativity course, but we are back with a new challenge for September: two-color prints.
While looking through WGSN’s S/S ’23 trend reports for inspiration for this month’s challenge, Chelsea noticed lots of two-color prints spread across the various trend stories.
Explore some of the trends Chelsea discovered and join us for this inspiring challenge!
