Best Quality primary imagery. I love the patterns and combination of colours within these which have inspired me to create some vibrant samples.
This is my mood board that i have created within my workspace, I feel it has been successful and includes all the materials/artists/colours etc I will use within my project.
Peter Pilotto is one of my inspired artists as I love the blues he works with and I feel it relates well to my sea life theme. From my past project I have decided to continue with my PVA glue samples as I can create movement with the Bruscho.

here are garments I created further into my project responding from peter pilottos work expressing waves and movement , I did this digitally by scanning in my shaving foam sample which was successful.
Carolyn Saxby has inspired me to use mixed media and combine techniques that I will be using. Also the colours she uses are vibrant and she embellishes into her work to give more texture and a better surface. I intend to follow this approach:

I feel these samples relate well to Pilotto's work, however I have used this in a different approach, I feel my samples are strong and realistic. I have also combined these with Carolyn Saxby's work by embellishing into them.
Here I have used an empasto print onto one of Pve glue samples. I like how the print contrasts well from the vibrant colours. I feel the print is successful as clear and bold.
I have selected my two favourite patterns to work from and created samples combining my favourite techniques in the style of carolyn saxby. I chosen this image in paticular as it includes a range of blues which I was inspired by from pilottos work, therefore I can combine my pva glue samples with felting,embroidery,dying,reverse (applique) and embellishing.
here I have started to manipulate fabrics with a heat gun to give texture and show layers.
This has to be one of my favourite samples as I love the use of angelina fibres. These of which are very delicate shwoing a more realistic approach.I also love the reflective side to this sample.
Here is one of my sellotape em pasto prints which I have developed by layering and stitching around the main pattern.
Scraper board sample.
Layered fabrics which were then Manipulated. I love this pattern as the two colours are contrasting and I feel my samples look effective.
This sample is made from 3d paste. I like the texture it has created as it looks more realistic as not a neat shape naturally.
The use of Shibori gave this sample depth and structure. I like the use of reflective material and I feel the shapes have turned out strongly to relate from my primary. I have approached this image in an unusual way and overall is one of my favourite samples.
I embellished this sample as I felt it added more texture and relates with Saxby's work. This sample is one of my successful , strongest pieces as theres lots going on and a combination of techniques that work really well together.
I love the vibrancy of all these samples. I felt this image was easy to work from as a simple pattern, but i have brought it across in a textiles way which I feel have worked well.I looked at the pattern close up and the fish as a whole and I feel the whole fish looks more effective.
These designs I have created from photoshop scanning in my samples and using different tools. These are my Pva glue samples combined with my favourite primary image I focused on. The image on the left is a surface design , and the right is my postcard design for my exhibiition.
Here are my set of 4 canvas's which were developed from my strongest samples and reflecting on peer feedback to ensure I combined my opinions and peers. I feel through this process there even further developed and at a better quality.
Here is my final garment modelled by a peer in my class which was I felt had the perfect appearance for this dress and who was happy to help me out! I think it looks professional and very detailed. It is more suitable for a catwalk which was my intension! I also feel I chose my pattern wisely to focus on as the colours are great and the techniques used were my from my strongest samples. This dress relates well to Pilotto and Saxby's work which I have been inspired by throughout the whole project.
Here are sections of my final garment which I paticulary loved. I feel theres great textures, layers and different medias used which I intended to achieve at the end of this project.
Here is my exhibition display! Overall it has been successful and I feel it looks professional. I like how my canvas's flow well through to my garment showing development. I also feel the theme is brought across effectively and strongly towards to the audience.
