Having been a Palm Springs aficionado for years, I was inspired by this this desert city’s iconic modernism style that is everywhere! This midcentury modern desert landscape, one print from my Midcentury Modern designer collection, is how I chose to embody this theme in a design that was simple, clean, and made full use of the classic retro/modernism palette.
I am Barbara Marrs, a freelance fabric surface designer, graphic artist, and photographer based in Southern California, USA. After receiving a B.A. in Creative Arts from Rutgers University, I took post baccalaureate courses in both professional photography and fabric surface design, specializing in the shibori and tritik dye-resist methods. My resulting creations exhibit a wide variety of diverse motifs and styles, from minimalist abstracts to retro repeat patterns. As a fabric surface designer, I also welcome the opportunity to design patterns to order that meet your specific needs.
