Berlin Street Art

An interesting part of the trip was the street art. It was mostly graffiti but there were also a few sculptures. 




























Berlin Trip

This years college trip was to Berlin. I had an amazing time. We visited a few exhibits and galleries and looked at the street art. We also visited a second hand shop called Humana. I had a look for something for my Etsy shop but didn't see anything I could use. 
I found the architecture there very interesting, some of the building had unusual shapes. I especially liked this buiding (picture below) it has this wave shape to it which gave me a few ideas for seams and draping of the fabric.
