Print Design Project

Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf_tgSDtuUs

For this project, I chose the instrumental version of “Runaway” by Kanye West. In my mind when listening to the song I envisioned a piano because the main tune is produced with a piano, and I pictured dark colors because there is a creepy tone to the music. Because of this I wanted to incorporate owls and raindrops in one piece and a piano in the other. After experimenting with the colors I created these print designs…

         

Of the two my favorite is the piano pattern because of the colors and the way it is abstracted to reference a piano without being representational. The owls with raindrops pattern is my representational. I drew out the owl in my sketchbook and scanned it, same with the raindrops. I did the piano pattern first so I chose those colors from my mindmap and then with the owl pattern I made the background color the same as the dark blue keys and the outline of the owls and raindrops to be the lighter purple. Because the piano pattern is my favorite I printed it out on silk charmeuse fabric…
