Cambodia inspiration

I’d wanted to visit Cambodia for a long time and in summer 2018 it actually happened. South East Asia is so different to the UK so I find it hard not to be inspired by the sights, food and plants.  

Recently I wanted to experiment with printing photos onto fabric to embroidery over and I knew immediately the image I wanted to pick. 

The image below I used as inspiration in module 2 of my City & Guilds course - this was a design module and we had to pick a theme. The theme I finally settled on was ‘blocks’.

The other images below are different textures from my trip which are sure to be sources of inspiration for future projects.
