So I wanted to give my design a bit of depth and some texture so I started out by messing with cardboard and the idea of the image being a cut out of maybe some kind of expensive looking wallpaper? That idea was short lived... absolutely hated it!
I then tried making up different textures to use within the circles of the previous designs but while I was messing with that I created the last image above. Didn't really know what I was doing, the image is actually made from face powder and hair balm, very random I know but it was what was close to hand! I quite like this image so I'm going to explore what else can come from this image. I'm still going to work on the other design also, don't think I'll abandon it just yet!
So I tried to use a textured circle to recreate the previous images. This didn't really work for two reasons, one the building up of the circles made the file absolutely huge and illustrator kept shutting down on me. You can see how far I got below... not very! The second reason is even with as little as I could do of this image, I really didn't like it. I think it's a little too fussy and the image is getting over worked.
