Lots of tutorials


On monday we had a research review. First was a tutorial with Mel and Kathy together, which was really helpful. They were really pleased with the new direction of this project so feel 're-inspired', and really excited to start printing. Tommorow im going to a photoshop workshop with Kenny to find out more about putting images into repeat. Going to try repeating this photo, and also need to ask about 'the mask tool' to try and brighten certain areas of it. Thinking of printing it onto a crepe de chine, or silk. Something floaty, to add to the shimmery effect. Going to add a yellow to my colour palette to brighten it up a bit, and also some 'plastic bag blue'. Also need to do some more line drawings of beach finds. Kathy preferred the things i tried on photoshop without the outlines. Lots of block colour. Had a chat about fabric too. Theb in the afternoon, ahd a quick chat with Claire Angel, who is helping us with the fashion side of things. See her next week again, and she has asked me to have some print samples ready (obviously my digital prints wont be back by then, but hopefully will have exposed screen by beginning of next week and started sampling. She also wants some fashion illustrations so she can see the shapes im thinking of, and of course need to finalise my colour palette and fabric choices.
