[CHAT] art patterns anyone?
Just like the title says! I’m in the market for art cross stitch patterns (by which I mean pieces of art like Hiroshige prints or John Singer Sargent paintings translated into a pattern, not just a pattern inspired by a piece/artist). I’ve been combing through Etsy, but the shop I used to get my patterns from has closed and I can’t find any independent site of theirs. I have managed to find some decent ones that aren’t AI patterns/use AI product “pics” (idc if it’s a real product, if it uses AI in the photos, I simply don’t trust it, sorry) but most of them are quite a bit larger than what I typically make.
I prefer working in the B5-A4 size range (176 x 250 mm and 210 x 297 mm), and love doing ukiyo-e or shin hanga print patterns (but I’m fine with western art too). I have dabbled in making my own patterns before, but it’s not something that I am able to dedicate the proper amount of time to, so buying is usually my first choice. If anyone has any recommendations for shops or specific patterns, I’d be beyond grateful! My head is spinning with the avalanche of patterns I’ve looked up already 😹
