Twiggyesque


Black felt pen coloured in photoshop
hope you like “Twiggyesque” :)

Having seen works which are printed onto transparent perspex, then mounted onto timber with 4 large screws leaving a small gap between the transparent perspex surface and the timber…i wanted to create a similar effect.

There is a tshirt available in this design…please click here

    P.S i have screenprinted on the reverse of perpsex one of the best ways of achieving an image
    easy to do digitally also these days Karin

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    ahh…right….that’s so interesting….do you still work in the print biz? you were doing screenprinting i know….well, i dooo love that effect….it strikes me as very contemporary and flash/modern… i have a real thing for it….i talked to my framer but he’s not likely to get involved…it’s something i’d have to explore myself someday…for now, I’ll just play pretend :) lol

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    ....guess it’s more about having the image printed onto the perspex first anyway…not really anything to do with a framer….

  • blamo

    blamo

    checkout a digital printers Karin so simple to do A lot of exhibitions have work like that now days

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    okay…i’ll do that blamo…just didn’t know where to begin…thnx for the heads up!!! :)))))))

    This is so different Karin. I was intrigued by the perspex first time I saw it I loved the idea. There are so many different ideas for producing work out there. When I first started in photoshop I loved the layering and the transparency. I want to achieve that in my art as well. She is lovely Karin, I still can’t help seeing you in her though.

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    it is very different Cate…it’s more like the initial stages of a major painting for me…it’s at a very raw stage…...i really enjoyed being able to capture her at such an early stage and yet being able to ‘finish’ her in a different way than the painting and pastel work which i’d normally do…i set out to use some layers and give a touch of watercolour, something gentle…and then i recalled how much i love the perspex idea…started playing with that and came up with this…at the time, the only thing I had in mind was a tshirt…the ideas to turn it into a print as well seemed to come after i’d made it into a tee…. i am so happy we have so many mediums at our disposal, we are so lucky aren’t we :) xxxxx
