Exercise: Patterns

For this exercise i decided to start of with a totally new font style to create a pattern. I used a combination of all of these potential processes for being decorative through repeating, reversing, rotating and overlapping and on first look the pattern looks very complicated although effective as a pattern with all the repeating.

So i simplified the design a bit more by taking out elements i deemed unnecessary and this was what was left.

I then decided i wanted to play around with the colour aspect a bit more. Making this seem more like a background patterned piece. I really like how this looks the colour really tones down the harshness of the pattern into something more subtle and soft with the gradient and dark purple undertone.
