So when looking and learning about UV light and the radiation that comes with it, things that are UV reactant with phosphorus that comes from the ash of animal and plant. What i may have to do is porcelain which is the recommended format for printing on ceramics. I may have to play this to... Continue Reading →
Brain wave.
Also i need to make sure that with my characters and drawing motif i am allowing a certain kind of liveliness and movement to the print. For instance like my drawing below, the pink adds a gesture and emotion. The side burns are also a great element to play with! all in all the idea... Continue Reading →
The Style of things…
Here i wanted to play around with some of the stories and how they could be represented. The one below is the fella with the horse that saved him from many things. From watercolour to what i think previously worked (the blue) which will also keep in keeping with the colour scheme of the Burleigh... Continue Reading →
The Display Cabinet
I really wanted to make a display cabinet in which would have what seemed to be white plain pots in it. The cabinet will be in motif with my style and so will the pots. I hope to make the pots and the cabinet my self to then when placing uv lights in will reveal... Continue Reading →
The Start of Hannah
Experiments with the idea of 'Freak Show' Posters in what she was sold as with a sadder and deeper narrative. I want to really look into this idea of using freak show layouts but with a closer look that allows you to see the cruel and true life that she had. All in the midst... Continue Reading →
THE SHAPE OF PRODUCT WILL EFFECT DESIGN TEMPLATE.
I must remember that with whatever i use, the main thing i must remember is the idea that if printed just squared A4, this would be bad, as it would not rap around the design cleanly and clearly thus resulting in an uneven design. Below are some videos of how to transfer litho.
Pot thoughts for Hannah Dale.
This has more impact visually than i imagined. The idea that this little pot has such a big relationship with a person and their story really gives the pot that extra something. The idea that a few separate parts of her story will be over the vase to show you the idea of how it... Continue Reading →
Testing with shapes of vase.
I was thinking at first the very format of the work could have been quite simple, but then i wanted to trial some of my prints on some modern pottery designs. This, even though looks quite unique and different, takes away the sentimentality away from the piece. What i mean by this is the idea... Continue Reading →
Testing with etching shape.
This was the development of the method using another old drawing of Kidda Kinsey (myself) and elaborating on that to form a more precise image. This allowed it to be easily transferred and also allowed for me to experiment with the idea of proportion and the image and experiment you should trial with each image... Continue Reading →
Testing with etching style.
So after doing my research on where I wanted to go stylistically with my imagery for the ceramics was more of a traditional manner. This would mean to embark on trials of texture making mainly relating to that of my local pottery to make it a hidden meaning. The first image is a previously drawn... Continue Reading →
