Patterning is fun, easy and relaxing - and it is a great way to add interest and texture to any design. Joanne Fink presents creative monogram and pattern techniques in Zenspirations, offering intriguing ideas for filling boarders, edges and spaces with creative flourishes. The many decorative boarders, frames, shapes, and alphabet will appeal to a spectrum of tastes and styles. Use Joanne's techniques to create details, depth and beauty reminiscent of classical architecture, medieval block printing and manuscript calligraphy. Her passion for beautiful patterns is contaigious. Joanne makes it easy to turn simple lines into attractive designs while her doodled shapes inspire readers to embellish more and just have fun with the process.
This 50 page book is packed full of creative ways to embellish designs. Fink has her dangles that are a simple but intricate patterns that are reminiscent of the beaded doorways of the 60's. She shows simple ways to make circular repeating patterns, border prints, and landscapes. I am fascinated by her border designs that she makes into frames for other pictures.
Inspiring and delightful for beginners or young.
