28th October Tutorial

Alex had a few suggestions to take my work further:

Print some of the photos from the foil cave A3 size perhaps and print on top of them

Could use pigment through a clear screen with clear medium to create the cloud - like backgrounds which I could print more graphic or linear images on top of

Could use white to mix pigment with to keep the bright colour

Foil should be fine on top of or under pigment as long as pigment is fixed before putting foil on top

Reactives might produce good colour but have poor reproducibility

Draw some electrical objects; I had said I might do this with the OHPs themselves as they are quite sci-fi looking, so think about what I could draw

Make sure I have a variety of images, some busy, some quiet, some large, some small scale

For tech file, need notes next to actual fabric samples and photoshop designs, focus on effects I like or new ones used, how things are fixed

Try and narrow down a context for final designs - cushion, wall hanging, tea towel, furniture cover? I think something found in the kitchen might be good because of the shiny look and reflective nature of taps, ovens etc. though equally  it might be interesting to subvert this idea and bring shine to the livingroom

Can have a mix of photoshop and fabric samples for final pieces, 8-10 things including context images
