A Passion for Painting Pattern by Raymond Honeyman

"A Passion for painting Pattern...the textile designs of Raymond Honeyman" is a book which takes you on a journey through the life, inspiration and the design techniques of the artist, beautifully portrayed through a series of painted designs and photographs. Raymond Honeyman's innate love of painting, colour and pattern led to a career in designing textiles and he has been one of the leading designers for Ehrman Tapestries for the last decade.

Raymond Honeyman's preoccupation with hand painted pattern stands out as a testament to the enduring significance of meticulous craft-based skillA designer of printed textiles, and also over the past decade focussing on the design of needlepoint kits, Honeyman's refusal to surrender to computer-aided design coincides with a global resurgence of interest in artisanal values. This book shows his original artworks and offers an insight into the mind of a master colourist. From paisley to tartan, the Mikado to Ming, his playful use of design and sophisticated blending of colour bring familiar images into unusual juxtaposition. Pushing the boundaries, his meticulous detail produces a depth and richness in pattern with a resulting complexity that puts his work in a category of its own. Anyone who appreciates colour and seeks inspiration in its manipulation will enjoy this book. Mary Schoeser, 2007
