samples

From the previous blogged sample I have been developing a mixture of fabric combinations on top of print.

I like the bold patterns of the fabric combined with my drawings, and layers of  print.

I like good mistakes...

Having made trips to leicester botanical gardens and nottingham castle, I have started to develop ideas from my original drawings. My intentions were for my drawings to be developed onto a screen and screen print samples. However having made my screen and created the prints the end results were a bit disappointing and not what I wanted. So instead I used pieces of fabric ends and layered them up to hide the original print by embroidery.
This first sample is very rough, but I quite like the fabric ends visable and fraying...
I think fabric dyeing is the next step forward!
