My name is Kimberley Turrell and I am the creator of Kimberley-Jane: Design. I would like you to join me on my journey as a new business start up and I will share with you some truly inspirational work, I have already found some amazing stuff.
So here I am... doing what I should of done five years ago when I started at Loughborough uni. But instead I got lured in by Printed Textiles. The freedom of continuous line drawing and comfy floral imagery was a stark contrast to the tight constrained way of working during the Graphic Design intro on my Foundation course. However descision made, job done! But I spent 3 years battling with my desire (absolute neccassary need) to use Photoshop. I won't lie convincing my tutor that my work was better produced in photoshop than hand drawn is not something I would recommend it equals tears and a clash of charactures. I quote - tutor "Kim we are not graphic designers we do not work in this way!!" But as head strong or stubborn as I was I pushed through.
At Loughborough University I was one of the first students to use their digital printer for fabrics and golly gosh what a buzz (Corin BB11). Finally I could create the textures and fine detail that I struggled with whilst screen printing.
Through experimentation with various filters in Photoshop I started to develop a style... using CAD had started to pay off. I would love any feedback for these images.
If you would like to comission me to produce some artwork of a place that is special to you in this style please contact me via my website: Kimberley-Jane: Design Contact Form
