Surface pattern 'Image transfer'

We went to the second part of the surface pattern workshop! What we had to do is take with us a drawing drawn onto acetate using a black paint pen (the reason why we needed to use a paint pen is because if the marker is too light and the light will shine through and wont produce the image properly). When we took our drawing in, we placed it on a big UV light box and it transferred the image. This was really really fun because we got to transfer our images after this onto our pieces of fabric we had made previously. 


The image that I had chosen to draw (homeless guy) was the one from the poster that I had made previously. As I have been focusing previously on people affected by consumerism, I wanted to turn my concentration to the people that aren't affected by it and don't have the privileges we have to go out and buy items to fit in with modern day living. 


This is what the image looks like on my wall of the studio!

Definatly something that I will want to experiment with!
