from the dye lab...


From my imagery taken of the scrap metal i picked out the plug and chain particularly because of the detail, after drawing it i have created a screen with an abstract repeat print.

 

 I wanted to create a transparent ghostly feel to my prints which is why i have chosen to base them around light delicate fabrics.

 

 After using black acid dye on the hot plates i washed them and decided to print using discharge paste, i have never used this technique before but after these outcomes it is perfect to carry throughout my future samples. 


 I am going to look at adding detail using clear and metallic foils and rusty copper tones via screen print
