Karl Blossfeldt – Photograph
isa
I leave here some of K Blossfeldt work… An Inspiration for pattern design … Should we be able to capture part of this natural construction, mouvement and energy 🙂
Plant photographs capturing the sensual beauty of nature from Urformen der Kunst (Archetypes of Art) (1928) by Karl Blossfeldt (1865–1932).
Blossfeldt was known for his technical mastery of macro photography where he magnified the alien beauty of nature through his close-up portraits of plants, twigs, leaves, and seeds.
Although he was a lecturer at the School of the Royal Museum of Arts and Crafts, Blossfeldt was never formally trained as a photographer.
Blossfeldt used home made cameras and lenses to magnify his subjects up to 30 times their natural size. This resulted in sharp-focus realism, extreme clarity, and rigid compositions that look surprisingly avant-garde.
Those images come from raw pixel public (free to download under the CC0 license) domain images They have digitally enhanced these astonishing plant photographs in high-resolution printable quality.

TEST THE BIG SIZE SPONNFLOWER PATTERN ON FABRIC

… and Fabric sample pack from Spoonflwer
Sorry for the poor quality of the photos. I had them on my phone, and I forgot to mention it.
Last summer, I ordered different kinds of fabrics from my own Spoonflower shop. I wanted to check the quality of the print as well as the size of the large-format of my patterns design. In my Spoonflower shop, I usually upload three sizes for each design: Small, Medium, and Large (for wallpaper). It was difficult to get an idea of the proportion of the large design and the texture of the fabric.
Spoonflower allows us to select multiple designs we want to print and With the option “fill a yard” option, we can choose the fabric and organise the patterns as a patchwork. It can be for a quilt or any project but it’s also a great way to test various of our designs at once on one or two textile surfaces.
I was so pleased with the result! The prints are sharp, neat, and vibrant. I’ve tried other printing places and processes before, but none were as beautiful as those ones.
One of the fabric is really thick, a kind of Jute fabric, great strong home furnishing fabric… ideal for restoring and renovating upholstered furniture. It’s really nice . A total professional result !
I will post better quality photos soon …
Handy sample pack
I ordered a fabric sample box from #spoonflower. It helps to picture what could be done with the #patterndesign displayed in my spoonflower boutique.
I was truly impressed by the pack. It goes from silky veil to thick beautiful furnishing fabric. I was so pleased by the range and the quality of those samples.

Trouver le bon mock up …
isa
Les mockups sont des outils merveilleux pour imaginer et, ou donner à imaginer ce que nos design de motifs pourraient rendre sur des surface.
Je n’ai malheureusement pas trouvé (meme sur Rawpixel) de mock up de sol en carreau de ciment … qui pourrait mettre en valeur la collection de “backsplash” sur Spoonflower
Il faut que je prenne le temps d’apprendre à faire mes propre mockups …

Old fashion greeting card …
… they where in a small format and my grand mother was sending loads of them all January long… some addressed to people from remote family that she barely knew others to the grocery guy or the across the road neighbours… a kind of happy formality. A gesture that required to make time and write nice formulas with her best goose feather handwriting style.
xmass motif :-) how does it look.
