playing with colour

i'm busy making more colour options for my jan pierewiet patterns. the idea behind these colour options are to stick as closely as possible to the traditional colours of enamel in south africa. if you like them and want to purchase wallpaper or material watch kristen's lovely shop, design kist. they are coming soon...

ek speel te lekker met kleur. my jan pierewiet patrone gaan nou ook beskikbaar wees in meer kleurkombinasies. die idee is om so na as moontlik die kleure te gebruik van tradisionele emalje in suid-afrika. hou kristen se winkel {design kist} dop as julle muurpapier of materiaal wil koop.

jan pierewiet, jan pierewiet, jan pierewiet staan stil

it's now official, tjou-tjou and design kist are collaborating. here are my jan pierewiet designs translated into surface design. my jan pierewiet designs are on sale as wall paper as well as beautiful material. design kist have an online shop and a facebook page if you want to cover your interiors with my jan pierewiet surface designs.
i'm proud to announce that tjou-tjou's jan pierewiet designs will be part of design kist's new range launching at the design indaba expo 2012.

the idea behind my designs:
jan pierewiet is the name of a south african afrikaans folk song as well as a local name
for a bokmakierie shrike, an indigenous bird. i grew up with my dad whistling the song
all the time. once you start to sing jan pierewiet, the catchy tune goes around and around
in your head.
