Pattern Progress

 For my pattern I was inspired by the rainforest. Its so full of life and there are so many patterns to get from it that I just had to do it. I choose a more plant based pattern because when I think of rain forest I think of greenery and the vast amount of plant species found there. 

I had to include this unique plant, because look at it. Who wouldn't kiss those lips? 

I did my motifs centered around these pics, I made it so some of the elements were overlapping, because of how dense this habitat is. I wanted to make it so the design was cluttered but not too cluttered. 

The plants I choose are what I found most associated with the rain forest. The ferns and leaves, also the pretty flowers. I also did a leopard print with it, because I wanted to add a bit of an animal aspect to the pattern, but this pattern was mostly centered around the plants. 

I played around with the sizing and decided that I liked the first one better, it was a bit clearer and more towards what I was going for. 

In the final motif of it I added some vines and branches to add more plants to it. 

The color scheme was mostly going to be a monochromatic scheme and it was going to contain more greens, with the lip flowers being red. I didn't want the background to be green though so I made it purple so it went with the darker scheme, but it didn't make the plants blend in too much. I also made the flowers pink, but that is because when you look at the rain forest you mostly see green with color popping out in various places.
