Recently I've been very busy creating my sweet inspired samples. Using the inspiration captured in my visual sheet and from the designers featured on this blog, I have experimented extensively with different techniques to create a wide range of unique samples.
I then went on to mount my work on sheets, as I fancied a change, having done my last two projects in sketchbooks.
Some of the techniques featured in these samples include: shibori wax, string and foam printing, felting, use of melted plastics and fibres, use of acetate, layering of materials, use of angelina fibres, stitching into photographs, trapping materials in plastic wallets and distressing various surfaces with the heat gun. Most of my samples are made from a combination of these techniques, as I like to experiment to see what works best.
My next step is to continue experimenting and developing my sample work, and then decide which samples I would like to use in my final piece.
