I made my Christmas patterns (for wapping paper) with this few procreate stamp brush i made just before
Creating a Custom Stamp Brush in procreate
Prepare Your Image: Start with a high-contrast image or design that you want to use as a stamp. You can use a drawing or import a photo and isolate the design by removing the background – Import the Image: Open the Actions menu (wrench icon). Go to the Add section and tap on Insert a Photo to bring in the image – Convert Image to a Brush: Once you’ve isolated the design, go to the Brush Studio by selecting the brush library and tapping the “+” icon to create a new brush. Under the Shape section, tap on Edit and import your design by choosing Import and selecting Photo or Import from File – Adjust the Brush Settings: You can adjust settings under Stroke Path, Taper, Shape, and Grain to fine-tune the look of your stamp brush. In the Shape section, you can also adjust the Scatter and Rotation to add variety to the stamp’s repetition – Save and Use: Once you’re happy with the settings, tap Done to save your brush, and it will appear in your brush library for use.

I created stamps (as a procreate brush) and used them to build a minimalist kind of scandinavian vibe (as i imagine it) patterns. using stamps & Simple paper cut shapes … with a simple repeat it create the magic as well as sophisticated ones.
It was quite relaxing to work with that material over the Christmas vacation, to focuses on simplicity, functionality with a connection to nature, a distinctive emphasis on clean lines, minimalism, and lightness… stylise rather than overly detail elements.
Usually I indulge myself onto the interacted Morris realm. it was different 🙂

IMAGINE istolar.art patterns on a lampshade
I soon will be be ready to present my patterns to fabric and interior decor industry. the truth is that i am a both scared and excited to jump in.
I first wanted to wait until I have various smalls coordinated collections to propose. So far, my patterns are individuals colors editable items (I hope they all have a family connection but there were not actually built as collections).
I cant wait to design some proper collections (coming soon)… How exciting!
Meanwhile, I try to make presentations such as these lampshades video to help people imagine how they could use my designs on their products. 🙂

William Morris and J.H Dearl’s work

The 19th century’s most celebrated designer
A key figure in the Arts & Crafts Movement
A key figure in the Arts & Crafts Movement, Morris championed a principle of handmade production that didn’t chime with the Victorian era’s focus on industrial ‘progress’.
William Morris prefers sentiments to sentimentality, natural simplicity to artificial profusion.
Critical of the industrial era, he does not object to the machine themselves but to their use by some to produce profit through the exploitation of other. He views art as an indicator of the health of the nation
W.Morris makes no difference between makers and thrive strives for equality and good design. However, because of his method of hand printing, his products only made it possible for the wealthy to buy his service

May Morris ( daughter )
They based their work on a set of principle that where largely influenced by the social circumstances and victorian society and culture. this group became a force that will change the way people view and value the decorative art and its creators.
They create a new design trend: architecture, interior design, gardening, fashion
Moriss’s design is iconic and shape the art and craft movement as we perceived it today
W.M relation to time is showing within his work:
The past is not dead. It is living in us and will be alive in the future which we are now helping to make.
W.M has no affinity with purely abstract pattern. He reject simple replication he seek a sens of hidden depth
principle of art & craft movement
Principle 1
Design should be created in context to the environment not for its own existence or for admiration only. he creates pattern with an intention and purpose (create pattern that will work well on specific product)
INTENTION AND PURPOSE ARE PARAMOUNT !
Principle 2
Design should first be created out of function after that is achieved ornament and decor an be added in Morris work there was never redondance or unnecessary details
START WITH THE FUNCTION !
Principle 3
Design should be true to purpose and its material, honest in how it is created. It shouldn’t imitate or look like something.
This is why the art & craft style was created in a two dimensional matter with simplified and stylised animal, plants motifs.
it should not try to look real but only to borrow the beauty of the nature and use it as a manner that complement the interior
stylise the motif to suits the suppose !
Principle 4
Use nature as your source of inspiration.
There are no abstract and non figurative design
All art & craft designer are inspired by nature with motifs of: – Foliage – Flowers – Animals – Fruits
Not to try to depict nature realistically but in a stylised way !
Principle 5
The designer should be involve in the whole process: from design to making… this mean learning and practicing every craft behind his product (design drawing, embroidery, waving, dying, printing…)
GET GOOD AT THE CRAFT AND DESIGN !
Try different technics and medias for creating pattern !

My pattern design very humbly take their inspiration from the atmosphere of the infinite beauty of William Morris & co. , or let’s say W.Moriss universe is my favorite graphic meditation and esthetic emotion
Within his bold two dimensional pattern Morris crafted a visceral response to the curves and waves of nature
I love the the way he reject simple replication of the past but capture its spirit, and seek the sense of depth and light:
How ever original a man may be he can not afford to disregard the work of art that have been produced in time past when design was flourishing, he is bound to study old exemples but he is also bound to supplement that by a careful study of nature because if he does not he will certainly fall into a sort of cut and dried conventional method of designing
