Diving Into Anna's Artistic Inspirations
With so many of Anna Blatman's creations featuring elements of nature, it's no surprise where she draws her inspiration from. "From the very beginning of my painting career, I've always been inspired by the world around me," Anna says, "My love of the rural countryside led me to paint birds, houses, and florals".
Anna's inspirations are evident in her designs, with her works of art reflecting the bright colours and textures of the outdoors.
Behind the Design: Anna's Painting Process
Every artist has their own distinct process that results in their final design. It can be as detailed as planning a sketch and thinking about what colours to incorporate in their designs, or it can be as simple as letting their work come from them. Anna's design process leads more to the latter, letting her creativity take control.
"When I start a painting, I have an inkling of what I want to do. If it's flowers in a vase, I will paint vague shapes and then work dark tones to light," says Anna. "I have no idea of how the painting will end and appreciate the journey of colour I will go on till the real talent arrives and that's knowing when to stop."
Anna's creativity is evident in her final works of art that reflect her signature colourful style.
Anna has worked to develop a range of colourful sewing fabrics and sewing accessories for all the sewists looking for their next creative endeavour.
This range of fabric involves a variety in patterns and colour tones, including a pattern of birds atop a soft pink background, vibrant collages of flowers and a pattern showcasing the beauty of both flowers and birds atop a rich green background. These fabrics allow you to incorporate the cheerful accent of Anna Blatman art into your next sewing project. Anna envisions sewists utilising this range of fabric for decorative projects. "I can imagine people buying my fabric for every room in their home. Cushions for a couch or bedroom chair, a book cover for their precious books, aprons, curtains and maybe even clothing," says Anna.
Anna hopes sewists find her fabric designs "fun and friendly". She hopes people are drawn to her bold colour palettes and stunning subjects of her patterns. "Everything I paint is near and dear to me and I hope they love working with the gorgeous quality materials," Anna speaks of her work in the collaboration.

Sewing is such a different world to mine and I'm in awe of anyone that can work a sewing machine and follow a pattern or make a quilt."
