Society6 Art Director and artist Jessica Parker put together this list of the top three things she thinks are about to be huge. Follow these tips and make them your own to get ahead of the game this winter season.
Simple Portraits
Pared-down portraits seem to be gaining in popularity right now, especially those of fashionable women. Instead of taking a detailed approach to faces or clothing, we’re seeing a lot of minimalist illustrations with bold shapes and line-work that creates a larger picture. Ladies are always trending, but this is a fun, less-direct way to feature them in your work.
Organic Geometry
Geometric shapes will always be popular, especially when it comes to home decor products. However, lately I’ve been loving the more “organic” approach to geometry that’s been all over the site. Instead of stark lines, hard edges and a bold graphic look—shapes have been looking less perfect. Try something new this fall and approach your abstract compositions with this soft hand.
Muted Palettes
Spring was all about bright, bold gem tones, but we’re seeing the rise in popularity of toned-down colors for autumn. Basically take the dimmer switch to all of your favorite hues and you’ve got it! We’re also loving unexpected color combos such as lavender and brown or maroon and mustard. Get some inspiration from the cozier colors this month and you’ll be right on the money.
