Ave Maria Art

I just made these today.  This is my "Ave Maria" collection made in the Bubble Program.  The first I call "Ave Maria East & West", the second I call "Ave Maria of the Roman Empire".  This is as festive as I get on Christmas Eve...hmm, I'm thinking gift wrap, holiday home decoration, tapestries, etc.

Enjoy! - Juliette

Unique CAD software for Print Design is ahead of the curve!

...and I don't just mean hue curves!

My boss, Rob Manning and his colleague, Bob Hoffman have engineered a proprietary CAD software program for textile, print, and surface design.  Here at the studio, SuperSample, we call this the "Bubble Program".

I can take any number of motifs consisting of high resolution RGB digital images (graphics, photos, etc.), and within a few moments:

Create a design, in full repeat, and ready to be printed.
Alter colors to specific RGB colors
Repeat any which way (horizontal/vertical 1/2 drop, 1/4, 1/8, etc.)
Alter image sizes (without distorting them!)
Arrange or "toggle" the composition/images an infinite number of ways

This is not an exhaustive list, please have a look at some of the designs created by Rob Manning using this software:
