I started colouring the circle pattern but don’t really like the colourway…
Cutting out and getting rid of the colour I don’t want in it.
Stuck pieces of yellow paper underneath.
I used several different shades of yellow and grey instead.
– and the mess!
I love seeing your process… and am incredibly impressed by your patience and steady hand in removing the color you disliked!
Hi Jennifer,
Patience – is actually a quality I'm trying to have :) Thank you for enjoying my process, I will have a lot more to share :)
It's beautiful! I love seeing the process too and all those lovely tiny pieces of paper cut out! I have a grey and yellow obsession at the moment so I totally agree with your choice to remove the reddish parts! It was my first thought before I saw the rest of your photos!!! (*o*)/ claire
Claire san, what a coincidence! :) Grey and yellow is a good and popular combination, I also found it pretty refreshing, too :)
I do admire you for doing this process all by hand – wonderful results!
Thank you! :)
I love these different circle things for colour combos i am seeking. Can i ask what you use them for? ( just found your blog here so probably missef that part somewhere). I am wondering if this processes would give a good idea of how a warp would look with different weft colours before actually sampling weft.
Hi Denise,
Thank you for your comment!
This was only an experiment and I still haven’t applied to any of my products.
It’s interesting though – that you mentioned warp and weft, because I was wondering before too, if I could sort of sample the colour of woven textiles.
