I have started to develop my ideas by choosing one of the original images I drew and elaborated and exaggerated it by experimenting with different medias, different line, and adding colour.
Stitching Brusho Acrylic paint Oil pastels Pen
Looking at the work of DanYELL a surface pattern designer she adds little amounts of colour into her black and white designs which looks really affective and as a surface pattern piece it creates a statement, this is something I wanted to develop in my own work.
I am refining my original piece by blowing up and tightening the lines that have been created within the pattern. I think that the lines that have been blown up to fill the page has worked the best as there can be bigger areas of colour and detail added. I tried to use pen on fabric to draw out the lines however this didn't turn out too well as it was quite faint and also there wasn't much control. I also thought what worked well was the pieces made on tissue. The tissue soaked up and spread the brusho ink which created new colours, tone and texture for an interesting background piece.
My intentions now are to keep exploring these deigns and creating a three piece collection from them. One collection hand made and another Photoshop designed.
