My first sketchbook explored and investigated patterns:
I created my drawings by using water colour as a base to map out proportions and the general feeling and atmosphere of the work; as I believe colour is crucial to moving the viewer.
I then drew on top of it using two sizes of black pen; I use the thinnest one to begin with and then I add the thicker pen line where I think there needs to be a more exaggerated or dominant line. This thick line is also helpful in producing a sense of movement to the work as I don't feel I have to be precious with it.

I then photographed it and edited them on Photoshop; adjusting the Levels and Saturation first. Then making small improvements and getting rid of any outliers (unnecessary marks).

I then started to produce my final designs in postcard format:
