simplified it in Photoshop Elements (Image 53);
and then recomposed and scanned it (Image 54).
This image was printed on card, cut out and photographs taken of the shadows produced (Image 55).
Using the same image, different materials were added to produce textural effects (Image 56). These are detailed below.
Image 57 - Tissue Shred, cut, folded and attached using dilute 50/50 PVA to give suggestion of feathers.
Image 58 - Tissue used to fill shoes - layered with dilute 50/50 PVA then pummeled with the end of the paintbrush until it formed paper pulp. Once in place, fine lines were added with scalpel to again suggest of feathers. The ridges produced resembled smocking - which might prove useful if this design was taken into stitch. I liked this one!
Image 59 - Dishcloth cotton - attached with PVA.
Image 60 - White tissue - layered, folded and attached with dilute 50/50 PVA.
Image 61 - Kozo paper - soaked in water, distorted and layered using PVA.
Image 62 - Kozo paper - soaked in water, pulled and separated until very thin. Soaked in PVA and marks added with scalpel.
Image 63 - White raffia - ripped into strips and attached with dilute 50/50 PVA. Some markings added with scalpel.
Image 64 - Scrim - distressed and layered with dilute 50/50 PVA.
So beautiful!
