noun
1.
a large juicy tropical fruit consisting of aromatic edible yellow flesh surrounded by a tough segmented skin and topped with a tuft of stiff leaves.
"roughly chop the pineapples and apricots"
2.
the widely cultivated tropical American plant that bears the pineapple. It is low-growing, with a spiral of spiny sword-shaped leaves on a thick stem.

So after some printing and stencil work I came to the idea of a wallpeper....I had always wanted to make a pineapple design the main feature of my juice bar as thought of a pineapple when I think of Tutti Frutti.......

thinking of design pattern and texture
liked the idea as a wallpaper
lining paper white

 I'm I slightly crazy, Now I'm making and going into wallpaper production. What is this course doing to me! Seriously covering my walls in lining paper to create a wallpaper with the effect of pineapples YES I'm definitely mad!
mixed white with 1/3 yellow I had

stippled with a brush the mixed yellow along with the pure yellow


using a piece of old wood dragged the orange paint to create these marks


again with some wood dipped in green paint stenciled the trellis style print


if done with some actual thought could be a good strong design for a wallpaper
 I like the rough effect and the unfinished childlike look the wallpaper has! Not neat or refined in any way.

 I should write about how some artist or designer inspired my paper but in truth it was just me, myself and a pineapple.... Thinking of texture or pattern.....

Looking at the final result I think a trellis design could be a link if I had to link it to a designer

I'm not sure why this Mcdonalds Ad isnt playing but this is the song I was singing the whole time I was creating my paper.....Got rather annoying after a while but maybe added to my creative design haha....Juicy Pineapple song on you tube was what I searched to find the song.....Be warned tho does get in your head.

I'm finding I'm a visual person and need or like to see things as they'll be...I'm not very good at thinking and seeing. I've to know why, how, what and if the ideas I have will work... This is a good and bad thing as I could waste a lot of time energy and resources doing this. However, it could also influence other ideas too.
