More Printing :)



When I have had some spare time on an evening I have been able to get some more samples done in the print rooms. I have had some more experiments with the dyes and manutex pulls, it is really interesting to see how the dyes disperse. Above is a sample of cotton sateen with procion dyes- olive green, lemon yellow, magenta and charcoal.



A sample using the same method but on dyed fabric.

Print Club at CCAD 14th May 2012!



 At todays print club I have gone back to a technique I tried with some of my samples in third year. Using four of my dyes I have painted onto a wet screen then allowed it to dry. Then on some heavy cotton I have used manutex to pull the colour threw. Below is the results! I am very pleased. I think the green has dispersed more in areas so this is something I will work with my next one. I am hope to put these into frames in which people can use as wall art.
