Otaheite Cloth from United Service Museum



Starting small and simple. I have this book called "The Grammar of Ornament" by Owen Jones. First published in 1856, it is a collection of more than 2,350 classic patterns (that's what it says on the cover). For my work, I had an opportunity to work on Medieval style borders, title treatments etc. It was real fun adapting some of these elements to the Illustrator.

I've decided to adapt most of the patterns in this book to Illustrator, just as a fun and relaxing way to spend my free time.
