Here are some of my final and inital samples for my exam topic. 
i have added improvements to certain samples eg: texture, colour, technique and materials.
My inital samples were all very similar so i started experimenting with different shaped leaves, layering the leaf shapes on top of each other and repeating the same leaves but with different materials.
I also created a leaf vein pattern which then i have layered different shaped leaves onto it.

I am going to create more samples using different techniques and materials which add texture and colour to my work. I will also in coperate my artists which i have found into my work.
