She creates fantastic collages by combining old - world images from maps, antique books and archives with the latest printing technology. I came across Kristjana and her work in the February 2015 edition of Homes & Antiques. <br />
<br />
I love the idea of mixing the old with the new and have found her work an inspiration. After previously creating wallpapers, collages and cut out work as part of my degree show and seeing Kristjana's work, I have found myself excited in to creating some new ideas and pieces of work using my own style.<br />
<br />
Here a few pieces of Krishna's work.....<br />

‘I have always loved drawing, painting and being creative. Whilst I had already gained a number of qualifications in art, design, textiles and fashion, after a number of years away from studying, I decided to go back to University and studied for a BA (Hons) Degree in Textiles and Surface Design at The University Of Bolton, gaining a 2:2 and graduating in July 2013. The surface design element particularly interested me and I improved and developed a skill in creating designs that could be used for surfaces such as fabric, ceramics and wallpapers.</div>

Whilst I am a freelance surface designer, I would like to see some of my designs on finished products and be sold in the likes of Anthropologie and Liberty’s.’</div>

‘Using a combination of papers, paint and drawing ink, I have produced a variety of simple but effective pieces of textured work and designs. Cutting and collaging papers and combining them with a loose style drawing of things that have inspired me such as objects of nature like plants, animals and birds, layering them together, sometimes placing tracing paper with loose style drawings over the top help me to create my designs. Whilst some of my work has been done in traditional ways such as by hand or screen printing, I also like to scan in work and manipulate my designs on Photoshop and illustrator by changing things such as the colour so that I am also producing modern, contemporary collections. I enjoy going to see different shows and exhibitions and visiting the likes of Printsource, The First Cut Exhibition, Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair which have been great to see.’</div>

I love to work on brown paper and brown paper bags, creating different backgrounds using paint, ink, collage and cut out work. I am working on some new designs and pieces of work using these elements with a theme based on flowers. These could be kept as they are and mounted as individual pieces or expanded in to full length, one off pieces such as wallpapers and murals.’</div>

I wanted to show the three handmade wallpapers and hangings when they were completed. By hanging them up, it shows how effective the pieces are. Looking at the pieces before everything was put together or whilst they were lay flat, you couldn't full see how effective they were. Once they were hung up, you could then see the look and feel that I wanted to create. </div>

These are some shots of my business card. I wanted to have a simple, clean, crisp look whilst still using some of my drawings, cut outs and textured work. The green and red of the parrot are also part of my colour palette and I wanted to bring some of that colour in and have it on the business card so that it completed the look and the link to my theme. </div>

This initially started off as one of my final plant designs with white pigment on the linen. After I had screen printed one of the rows and lifted the screen, we realised that a piece of the masking tape we had used to mark off where to put the screen had been left on the linen. This left a strip of the original colour of the linen showing through one of the designs when it should of been white. After trying to correct it using the white pigment and a smaller squigie, you could still see the strip showing through. I made the decision of adding a row of a plant in one of the colours from my colour palette and thought I could use this piece as either a smaller croqui design or use it to cover a vintage stool or chair.</div>

Still using linen and white pigment, I also screen printed another design using two different cut out of plants. This design along with the other on linen, are part of my plant collection and both are long drops of fabric showing each design that are to be used for interiors.</div>

Whilst I am doing so many larger scale final designs on drops of linen fabric, I am also producing smaller scale designs on to linen as well. These are some examples and you can see where some of the white pigment isn't as strong in some places as others. This helps towards creating the texture I wanted which you can see in my original drawings, cut outs and paintings with white paint on brown paper.</div>

These are some images of me printing one of my final designs on to linen. The screen was quite a large screen so I did have to have some help when I was putting it in the right place to print and also when I needed to lift the screen up after printing. Before I printed the plant designs, I measured and marked with masking tape so I knew where I had to print each time. </div>

Although my final collection on linen consists of the plant designs screen printed withe pigment, I also wanted to see how this collection could be developed. This involved screen printing some of the line drawings of animals that I had produced in colours from my colour palette. This could work quite well and even though the plants and animals are simple line drawings and cut outs, they are effective.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I would like to produce smaller croqui samples and designs on linen to show how the cut out plant designs and lined animal drawings can also be used for fabric and interior designs. </div>

After doing my full length screen printed test piece of a final design on linen, I ironed it once dry and when I took the linen off the print table, it left an imprint of my design on the table. This was where some of the pigment had gone through the fabric. The white pigment on the linen gives a textured, natural look and I really liked the textured effect it has left of the white on the black. By taking pictures of the pigment on the table, I wanted to record the texture in another colour way and wondered whether the images could be used. </div>

These are some images of one of my final plant designs. I first tried it on cotton with another colour in the length that I wanted to use to see how it would look. The top image is an example of this and whilst it looks effective, the images are a little bit too close together so I knew I had to move them and have a bit more space in between each one. The second and third images are one of the final designs using the white pigment on the linen as I wanted to see how the full design looked on the length of fabric I wanted to use.</div>

These are the designs that I am going to use to screen print with white pigment on to linen. They will be screen printed on to long lengths and dropped vertically in my final degree show so you get to see the full effect of the design. My designs are aimed at being used for interiors and rather that than make something out of all of the fabric designs, I wanted to people to see the full potential and think about what they could be used for.</div>

These are some ideas for my plant designs to be screen printed on to linen with with pigment. The two plant shapes are the ones I want to use on the linen and I was playing around with composition, colour and the positive and negative of the cut out plants.</div>

After deciding that I wanted to screen print my plant collection on linen with white pigment, I chose to do some samples with one of the cut out plants that I was going to use. I used the positive and negative of the cut out to make sure I was getting the look I wanted. It worked well so I decided to stick with this method for my final designs for the plant designs to be put on linen. Although I wanted to just use white pigment, I decided to try another colour to see if it worked which I was also pleased about as I think using some colour also works well and is something I can think about doing if I wanted to move on from using white pigment on its own.</div>

Lara MacKinnon was a designer that created designs for both fashion and interiors. It was worth me looking at her work as a source of research as she used simple but effective techniques such as the simple lined drawings and collaged effect like those in Leaves and Birds Of A Feather.</div>

These are a small selection of images and work created by Sisters Gulassa. I have found them really beneficial to look at. Not only do they use a variety of bright colours, but they also use a collection of block paintings and drawings as well as lined drawings, collage and what looks like tracing/transparent paper within their work. As some of my work involves lined drawings, a cut out and collaged effect and tracing paper, it was useful to see how they used these techniques and combining them with composition to create the images they wanted.</div>

I was experimenting with some cut out work of plant shapes and decided to scan them so I had the option to create some ideas and designs on photoshop or illustrator. The sun happened to be shining and as my work went through the scanner, the wrong side was the side I saw and as the sun was shining, it was also shining through the brown paper with the cut out plants to create a different effect that I thought could be used as part of my collection.</div>

Using white paint on brown works very well and made the decision to just use the plant shapes that you could find in the jungle and not use animals in this collection. The combination of painting white paint on brown paper and hand made paper and painting it in different directions helped to create a lovely textured, natural feel. Layering paper and cutting out the plant shapes then using the positive and negative of the cut out work and combining that idea with the white paint have helped to create this collection and has worked very well. </div>

The three collections that I want to produce are all linked in one way or another and are all part of my animal kingdom theme. There is one with just jungle type plants with the natural colours of brown and white, one with the natural colours of brown and white with the coloured lined drawings of the animals and/or birds and then the black and magenta collection with the lined drawings of the birds/animals. These are some ideas that I have started off with to see how the collection will work and how it can be developed. The idea and colours work well but the composition and size of the animals and plants when placing them together need to be taken in to consideration for the final design(s) to look right and work.</div>

Two of the collections I want to produce for my final degree show will include lined drawings of animals and birds and these will be drawn using colours from my colour palette. My intentions are to groups of the same animal or bird in the same design as well as grouping different animals and birds together and I need to think carefully about composition. One of the collections will have the natural background of white paint on brown paper and plants and animals like the one at the top with the drawings of parrots in different positions and colours. The other collection will have the drawn animals and/or birds in it but on a black and magenta background. </div>

These are part of a number of plants and flowers that I have looked at to use as part of my drawing and designs for part of my Animal Kingdom theme. I still needed to look at and draw different ones to be able to decide on a the ones I wanted to use in my final collections.</div>

Whilst it's always good to see different exhibitions at different galleries, this was great for me to see and one that would be beneficial as my work does include some cut out work and it was valuable for me to see the different scales and pieces of work that had been produced. It also helped for me to see what a finished piece would look like, no matter how simple or intricate it was. I managed to take a number of different pictures so thought I would share them with you.<br />

These are three artists/designers that I have been looking at as part of my research and inspiration. I particularly like Andre Derain's style where he has put down the colours and then drawn over them in black, in a loose way but with a method that is still giving the overall painting/drawing/design a nice, detailed effect. </div>
