An origin story of how we at PM artist Studio create and use patterns as artistic tools! The design we wanted to feature is our PM Spiral Swirl (P calls it leaves). It has been a signature design from the start, in fact, let's start there... A simple sketch is all one...
Spooky Scrolls was the second challenge for the #MakersCreativeCollab we have been hosting each month. This all started in our Facebook group as a fun creative collaboration challenge for anyone in our group and those of us with channels could take it a bit further with a video hop. Below...
