Patterns with Maja Challenge: Stars

Star Pattern by Marta Tesoro

My second week in making the challenge which is stars. I was inspired by this one and have decided that even if the pattern I made wasn't exactly what I had in mind that I would still submit it and see how it goes. I started off not very inspired by the Star theme and the patterns I first initially thought about where complicated. I decided that I would loosely do some stars on paper and see how I went with editing it in Photoshop and it turned out pretty well, I think! I did a bunch of wonky stars to start and then thought to use some coloured pens to do some loose and imperfect stars with patterns in them.

I was drawing these stars on the couch while semi-watching TV.  I tend to put on things that am only partially watching when am drawing on the couch.  My favourite shows to put on are reality TV shows and animations I've watched before.  I only pay attention to the exciting parts.

I drew the stars straight with the coloured pens and scanned and edited in Photoshop.

I ended up doing 3 Star patterns and I think they look pretty good with the colourful stars with patterns being my favourite.

The gym gear looked nice too with striking pinks on grey. A really nice colour palette,  Sometimes it's best not to overthink it when it comes to creating, I think. Better to get something done and have something to show for it rather than aiming for perfection.
