Embroidery - Layering Medias [Week 5]

Whilst layering up dyed fabrics I had the idea to create some different grounds by using photocopies of my drawings and emulsion transferring them onto fabric, to create a worn, textured image. I think using this in my samples this week has really helped to push them that little bit further and so is something I would like to take into my final week. Due to the success of this, at the end of the week I decided to create some digital designs, using what I learnt in digital print. Using Photoshop to layer images of my previous samples, drawings and initial photographs; which I will then use as transfers for my final week of sampling. I haven't had these samples digitally printed because I like the aesthetics of the emulsion transfer, the broken lines create an energy that I fear would be lost through a smooth digital print.
