This sample was created using the marbling technique, I initially
looked at one of the sheep’s teeth I had
collected, once placed under the microscope I could see small circular
patterns that marbling achieved a similar pattern to. When I came to edit the sample the
effects I used made it become almost
cosmic looking which I particularly like as it keeps within my colour theme. I
then heat transferred this pattern in
circular shapes onto my fabric. I really like how its turned out as you
wouldn’t think it was inspired by teeth, and there showing the beauty in something
unexpected.
For this
mood board I wanted to show how I edited my initial sample to develop it
further. The original was made with the brusho inks
then altered using photoshop. I love
how the texture was still visible and looks quite similar to alcohol under the
microscope although the inspiration came from a moth wing, the colour theme
also inspired my final layered dress design as I loved the mystical and pastel shades shown. This was also the sample
that I have chosen to develop for my final fabric, I am extremely happy with
the outcome.
This
board was what inspired the front bottom layer of my dress, both the samples
were made with the heat transfer press, one with paint and one with heat
transfer paper. I liked how the colours
are not lilac like the other layers and have more of a variation to them yet
still quite muted and ystical as they
took on a lighter colour once pressed. The bottom postcard sample was made when
I looked at a variation of shells under the microscope which inspired the
circular and odd shapes. I think the textures work well and don’t seem to
thought out which I also like.
This
board developed from a butterfly specimen which I recreated on my sample
postcard using a mixture of wax and ink.
I then repeated this technique on to two
layers of my dress, I liked how the wax wouldn’t let the ink bleed therefore I
could keep a certain shape on the fabric
where I wished to. The fabric sample is of mono printing which I also continued
onto my layered dress, I liked how it was subtle but would still show a certain
amount of texture where I wanted it to.
