Factory Town

Steel works and sugar factories, the chugging & churning of the industrial age. An age of sputtering smokestacks and gurgling waste pipes, but also of industrious folks making the stuff we love. I have a soft spot for those disappearing old plants, soot, stink and all. That's why I have such a penchant for sneaking in the odd smokestack in a lot of my illustrations. Here, I took some leftover drawings of factories and built a fabric around them. It's my entry in this week's Spoonflower Design Challenge on the theme of "Monochrome."
