August Summer Sun

I recently finished reading the book, "Gone Girl" - wow, what a book!  The August summer weather has really put me in a calm mood. I enjoyed working on the middle pattern and could not believe how great those two flowers came out, once bringing them into Illustrator. The green dots are based on the many clovers that grow in my yard. I kept going with the dots which eventually morphed into a black and white that looks like juniper. I hate to begin to think of winter, but it is soon to be around the corner. Next, I have to begin to think of coordinating, simple patterns that are not as busy to complete the look. The Summer Winds have been fine and am already missing the beach.  Below is the photo of a beginning sketch.
