Pattern is an orderly arrangement of design elements such as dots, lines, shapes, textures, colors, etc. on a surface using any suitable decoration technique. Pattern making is an experimental process as the resulting designs cannot be predicted by the artist.
Patterns can be used as designs for paper bags, clothing, greeting cards, fringes, garlands, or tassels, and pop-ups. There are many techniques in making patterns. Examples of pattern making techniques are sponging, veining, blowing, splattering, splattering, stippling, string pulling, wax/batik resisting, marbling, scribbling, rubbing, rubbing, etc.
sponge
This pattern making technique involves using a sponge as the main tool for creating patterns. The sponge can be applied or spread over a material (such as paper or fabric). The paint or ink is then foamed into the open areas of the sponge. Paint or ink can also be sprayed onto the material after the sponge is applied. The lattice patterns or diamond patterns of the sponge will appear on the material. Another technique is to dip a sponge in paint or ink and roll it over the material or paper to create the patterns.
spray
This form of pattern making involves applying paint in liquid form by spraying paint onto the surface of the material to create interesting patterns. Sometimes the tips of the brush are loaded with color or ink and the thumb is used to spray color onto materials such as paper. The colored pigment or paint can be sprayed on with a foam pad or brush loaded with paint.
spray
This is the application of spilled paint or color through the small holes of a spray dispenser or sprayer. An aerosol can or container is filled with different colored pigments or ink and sprayed one by one onto the material in a variety of ways to create interesting designs. roofs
Sheets for calligraphy and other wall hangings are decorated with splash patterns in a variety of colors.
stippling
This is the use of a drawing or execution tool in creating a series of points in an orderly pattern on a material. Marking tools such as pencils, crayons, markers, and pens can be used to create interesting patterns of dots on paper and cardstock. This form of pattern making can be used to decorate the background of cardstock for use on greeting cards, certificates, and other forms of wall hangings. Pointed metal tools such as drills, chisels, and mounting screws can be used to create decorative textures in the form of dots on wood, clay, and leather backgrounds.
pull chain
This is the technique of creating patterns on a material using strings. These strands are immersed in a colored dye or ink. Then the colored thread is pulled so that the colors seep onto the material to create decorative patterns on the paper.
Scrabble
This method of creating patterns involves creating random abstract lines with a marking tool, generally without lifting the drawing device from the paper. Scribbles that are often created with different colored markers result in attractive and eye-catching patterns on the papers. It can be used to produce designs on paper bags, wreaths, greeting cards, etc.
paper marbled
This is a water (water) surface design method used to produce patterns. The patterns are usually by color, in which oil paint is poured to float on top of plain water or a viscous solution known as scale, and then carefully transferred to an absorbent surface, such as paper or canvas. It is often used as a writing surface for calligraphy, especially book covers and endpapers in bookbinding and stationery. It can also be used as designs on sheets for use in the production of paper bags.
Wax resist/batik coloring
This form of pattern making involves applying wax to resist sections of paper or fabric and applying color or ink to the entire surface of the material. After the paint or ink has dried on the surface of the material, the wax is scratched off or scraped off to create interesting patterns. Another technique is to apply a wax design to the surface of the material and dip it in a paint, dye, or ink solution. The wax is removed from the material after the paint or dye has dried to create the patterns. Colored pencils can be used to create attractive patterns on materials before paint, dye, or ink is applied.
