More Tigers Posted on 03 May 2012
I guess that my last tiger-based piece didn't get tigers out of my system, because here are even more of them. I wanted to try designing a repeating pattern - something that could be used on fabric, stationery, extremely loud wallpaper, etc. The repeat isn't absolutely perfect, but turned out better than I expected for my hand-drawn first attempt.
The lower tiger is based in part on my sketches for Paper Tiger. I thought oranges would coordinate nicely with the color of the tigers, whilst ensuring their adequate intake of vitamin C.

Oh my! I love your work - it's beautiful :-D Thanks for creating that Regretsy poster so that I could find another awesome artist to follow :-D

Will you be putting this up on Spoonflower, or otherwise offering it? I love tigers, and orange. I would love to have this in a fabric. (found you through Regretsy, and your work is amazing!)

Esz - Thanks so much, and I'm glad you like the Regretsy poster!
Kenzie - I'd definitely like to offer this as a fabric; it looks like I have to order a proof through Spoonflower before putting it up for sale, and I'd want to fix the one or two small issues with the pattern repeat before doing so.
If you're followingme on Twitter or Facebook, I'll post an update when I've done it. Organizational skills permitting, I'll also try to contact you directly if/when it becomes available!

I really like this. It has almost a Celtic-like feel to it with the repeating patterns done swirling around one another.
