So to help me get inspired and designing my fabric for my final show, I went to visit a local Florist... <b><span style="color: #999999;">The Florist Ltd </span></b>in Bristol! They were very kind to let me take photos of well.. nearly all of their lovely flowers! :) I also visited a Garden Centre and did the same. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I tired to take mostly photos of roses are they are the most common flower seen in shabby chic designs. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I plan to look at <span style="color: #6fa8dc;"><b>Rachel Ashwell</b></span>, <b><span style="color: #e06666;">Cath Kidston</span></b>, <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Laura Ashley</b></span> and <span style="color: #674ea7;"><b>Kirstie Allsopp</b></span>... Yes I <span style="color: red; font-size: large;">love </span>Kirstie, her most recent TV Show, <span style="color: #e69138;"><i>Kirstie's Vintage Home</i></span> explored upcycling and vintage things, a perfect link for my project as Shabby Chic is a Vintage Style. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>OOooo... Did you know Kirstie Allsopp is Cath Kidston's cousin?!! </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I also created a Shabby Chic Board on my Pinterest Account, below are some beautiful images I found but there are more on my board... click <a href="http://pinterest.com/carmenaversa/shabby-chic/" target="_blank">here</a>!</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>My
project is based on the genre of upcycling and homeware. I particularly like
the shabby chic style and so I will look into upcycling methods, designers who
use shabby chic and the shabby chic style itself. My target audience will be
mainly females, as the shabby chic style uses lots of pastel colours and
flowers, both considered feminine.<o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

start the project I am going to visit second-hand and antique shops as well as
car boot sales, to find unique pieces. I particularly want a chair, a large
picture frame, a lampshade and either a small side table or a small chest of
drawers. I will give myself a budget of max. £40. I will then make mood boards
and drawings of different possible ways to upcycle each of my chosen pieces of
furniture or accessories. I definitely want to create a repeat pattern, which I
will screen-print onto fabric. I will use this to reupholster the chair and to
create other homeware accessories such as aprons, bunting, tea towels, table
runners etc. I may also print it onto paper. The repeat pattern is important
because it will tie in all my pieces of furniture to help make them more of a
collection. Another important element of this project will be to photograph
each object before and after upcycling. I may place these photos into a small
scrapbook.<o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>To
produce original ideas I will use a variety of methods; I will use Pinterest as
an idea generator, sketches and mood boards of my own ideas, which should be
influenced by my research on shabby chic designers. I will also look at books
and TV shows based on craft and upcycling. <o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>The
materials and techniques I want to use are restoring methods for wooden
furniture and so wood filling, sanding, priming, painting with a brush or spray
painting, it will depend on what I buy. <o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>For
the repeat pattern I will use screen printing onto fabric technique. Therefore
I will need to draw and design a pattern, apply it to the screen, mix up fabric
paint to create my chosen colours, print it and the iron it to make sure the
paint holds. I may also print it onto paper. <o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Other
equipment and techniques I may use include the sewing machine, staple gun and
hand embroidery. <o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>For
my final outcome I am going to produce part of a shabby chic interior,
consisting of upcycled furniture and accessories as well as handmade pieces. </i></span><span style="font-family: Century Gothic;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So this week I took my chosen photo and enlarged it to A3 Size. Then traced it with a fine line. Then using the traced version I scanned it into Photoshop and rubbed away any mistakes, after that I opened the image into Adobe Illustrated where I used 'Live Trace' to get more bold and defined lines. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My favourite outfit is number 7. I decided that this is the outfit I would most like to recreate in embroidery and stitch form. The photo above is the one I will use, I like the pose and the thickness of the pattern in the cardigan, the detailed feathers in the top and lastly the glasses. Also there is just enough clothes to not overpower the image for when I recreate the jumper in embroidery.</span></div>

I am first going to do a fashion shoot and create some interesting images that I could recreate in Stitch Form. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, I purposely chose interesting clothes such as a fur gilet, pom pom scarf, leopard print skirt, woolly cardigans etc for my model. The other reason for the fashion Shoot was to show where the <span style="color: #674ea7;">Human Form</span> theme comes in. </span>Carmen Aversahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09335299999989814011noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299750765677002437.post-73378636198031715032012-11-23T16:55:00.000-08:002013-01-03T18:24:21.073-08:00Izziyana Suhaimi<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Okay, I have just come across an AMAZING ARTIST! and just by accident, her name is <span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><i>Izziyana Suhaimi</i></b></span>, I think she is one of my new favourite artists!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here are examples of her work, all credit to her obviously! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She manages to incorporate embroidery into pencil drawings and watercolour paintings.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This week I played with Paper Collage again but this time used embroidery too. I used my life drawings as a template. I used embroidery thread to outline different shapes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To avoid ripping the paper, I made the holes first, by placing a sponge under the paper and piercing it with a needle. </span><br />

But we can choose any media to portray this theme. I want to look at mixing paper with fabrics :) </span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is my proposal...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">One of the most interesting workshops of last term was the assemblage one, I really loved Claire Coles work and so for the next 6 weeks I want to explore paper collage, sewing paper together and embroidery on both paper and fabric. </span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">One of the Artists I will look at is Kat Macleod, who I came across in the assemblage workshop last term. She creates beautiful fabric and paper collage illustrations of people. My final piece will be a fabric piece. My aim is to use a drawing from the life drawing sessions and recreate it in a patchwork style with paper and fabric. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
So I chose <span style="font-size: large;">POP-UP!</span> For the human form aspect, I designed 2 characters based on my parents. The story will be also be based on how they met. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My inspiration came from the <span style="color: #666666;">HJ Story</span>... which is the cutest thing I have come across! :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">HJ Story started
as a blog on </span><a href="http://hj-story.com/" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> in May 2010. But before that it began
with a few photo sms messages that the artist would send to his girlfriend,
purely for fun. As he claims </span><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>“I was never goo with expressing though spoken
words…”</i> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">he then created the blog, which included all the drawings he had done,
as a surprise gift for his girlfriend's upcoming birthday. The blog was intended to be
personal, but a friend of his posted it on twitter and he started to get
followers. He now shares his doodles on </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/hjstory.fb" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Facebook</a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">, </span><a href="http://hjstory.deviantart.com/" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank">deviantART </a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">and </span><a href="https://twitter.com/hj_story" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Twitter</a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I chose to go with fabric collages, my main inspiration came from one particular life drawing session, where we had to draw without looking at the paper. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">These drawings remind me of an embroidery stitch, particularly the drawing in the middle. Therefore this is where my idea came from.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I also looked at artist <span style="color: #ea9999; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;">Claire Coles</span>, who creates some beautiful sewn scenes using a mix of vintage wallpaper and fabrics. Also I recommend you check her out too! <a href="http://www.clairecoles.co.uk/">www.clairecoles.co.uk</a></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">...without a brush! :/</span></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I decided to try out watercolours and inks, mainly because I don't use them that often and I think using them well can create some lovely art! ;)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Seeing as the aim was to create a painting without using a brush I looked for drippy style ink and watercolour art. That's how I came across <b><span style="color: red;">M</span></b><span style="color: #b45f06;"><b>a</b></span><b><span style="color: orange;">r</span><span style="color: #bf9000;">c</span> <span style="color: #38761d;">A</span><span style="color: lime;">l</span><span style="color: #0b5394;">l</span><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">a</span><span style="color: blue;">n</span><span style="color: #674ea7;">t</span><span style="color: magenta;">e</span>!</b> </span></div>

for this workshop. This was based on a photo of my sister. I used a mix
of watercolour and inks, the watercolour to paint the face was applied
with a sponge and so it was easier to blend and create tone. The inks
were applied with a stick and moved by blowing through a straw. </span></td></tr>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I took most inspiration from 2 famous photographers, <b><span style="color: #666666;">Bill Brandt</span></b> & <b><span style="color: #999999;">Tono Stano,</span></b> (<a href="http://www.tonostano.com/">www.tonostano.com</a>) </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">both quite similar in high contrast monochrome style and subject; the female nude. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love the strong contrast in both their works, my favourite Brandt is...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I wanted to create a similar photograph and so high in contrast, black and white and the human form will come from my female model. I chose a female model because I think the female figure has more curves which in my opinion would be nicer to photography especially close-ups. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b style="color: #666666; font-size: x-large;">... </b>my initial idea was to capture the human form through one of the lenses in a pair of glasses and play with focus. But I ended up playing with the shadows created by the female form instead. I had a lot of fun whilst taking the photos and I managed to create some very interesting shapes with the help of different poses and carefully positioned lights. I think my photos are interesting and fun because they are abstract and you can interpret them any way you like, for example to me, my final photo reminds me of a tulip flower. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I edited my photos slightly by using Photoshop to Desaturate the image to make it black and white and adjusting the Curves and Levels to create more contrast.</span>Carmen Aversahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09335299999989814011noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299750765677002437.post-38119872543917878152012-09-15T20:15:00.000-07:002012-12-13T03:41:07.986-08:00Fashion Workshop...

It needs to be made from recycled materials and scraps. </span><br />
