Introducing the Garden Abstracts - New SCIARPA! Scarf Designs

Hello Beautiful Friends! 

4 New Wearable Art Scarf Designs just dropped!

Introducing the Garden Abstracts:

• Mediterranean - All the colors of a fresh, terraced citrus garden
• Alpine - Cool, mountains in the Springtime, pale pink, deep blue and olive
• Olive - All the shades of green, like frolicking through the olive groves
• Southwest - All the earthy goodness of the desert, including rocks and botanicals

Inspired by a Spoonflower design challenge, the Mediterranean design came first. 

If you would like to see the pattern challenge that sparked this line of scarves, check it out here.

The challenge was to create a design with the hues and colors of the Mediterranean in mind. It was perfect for me, as I often find myself longing to be back in Positano along the Amalfi coast, with the scent of fresh lemons and the views of the blue Mediterranean from the terraced olive gardens above. What do you think? Does my design capture the challenge criteria?

Voting for the design challenge opens March 12, if you'd like to cast a vote for your favorites. Otherwise, you can see the scarves now in my Etsy shop or find them on the website. 

 Peace, Love, and Creativity, 

Jodi

Hi Friends!

As many may have read last week, I have joined a creative challenge called the 3x3 Design Challenge by the awesome creatives at Sketch Design Repeat. 

The challenge is one prompt a week for 3 weeks and I am excited to challenge myself creatively and also finding the time to add just one more design to my work week. I have made it through week 2! 

This week's prompt is  Wild Abstraction. You will see one of the designs I created for my contribution below:

BW Ovals

My inspiration comes from a geometric shape and since I always love color, I thought I would challenge myself to stick to shades of Black and White. It is definitely abstract and seems wild, like the out of this world kind. 

What do you think of this design? Would you like to see this as fabric? Maybe on upholstery? I might like this on an oversized chair. 

Please leave a comment below to tell me your thoughts on this design, BW Ovals, or just say Hi!

BTW, I will be adding this and the other Wild Abstraction design to my JLopezArt Spoonflower Shop soon. Check in there to see my latest fabric and wallpaper offerings!

Peace, Love, and Creativity, 

Jodi
