From these patterns I decided to create new drawings so I processed them through various drawing techniques, this pattern in particular was translated into a mono print. For this mono print I used a gold gel pen to create the marks as it keeps the metallic theme from the Japanese inspiration consistent.
I found these mono prints really bland and flat, so I created more mono prints using metallic acrylic paint to print onto and with. These were successful as I could see a colour pallet developing, the marks and inconsistency of constant colour also helped me to keep in mind materials with different qualities, that will be useful to create samples with e.g. pile fabrics - velvet.
