INSPIRATION FOR THE PRINT:

I was inspired to make Beyond the Palms palm tree pattern by the idea of a secret world beyond the palm trees.

Local village girls laugh, sing and hula dance, dressed in colourful grass skirts decorated with shells and sea glass.

I created this pattern using digital and hand-painted elements. If you’d like to see my screenshots and step by step process, keep reading. (more…)
