My Final Pieces So Far...

FMP Evaluation...

Evaluation

Originally I wanted to base my project on Tchaikovsky’s ballet, but found that it would be quite difficult to do a whole project on it as it was quite broad of a subject. I also found it difficult with the design aspect of things to do with ballet and found that getting research for this topic would be quite difficult, therefore I changed my mind.

The focus of my FMP was based on the book ‘The Language of Flowers’. My focus was to present floral beauty in a number of ways from art to fashion, from gardens to photography and from traditional to contemporary floral design. I chose this theme because daily I was inspired by the utter magnificence of floral design; I also appreciated each pattern and stunning selection of colour and variety that flowers presented. I decided I wanted to explore this amazing creation further by basing my FMP on flowers. The theme I started of with was to explore the spiritual healing and emotional aspect that flowers had to offer. I also wanted to research the meanings of flowers and how we as humans relate to them and what each flower represents in life. 

I researched this wide topic of flowers by taking plenty of primary research from gardens by taking photographs in local parks and even in my own garden. I also took photos of my clothing that included floral prints on them to show how fashion includes flowers. Other research I took was from secondary and drawing from observation, I researched into loads of flower species and artists and designers that use there talent to portray flowers in many different ways. I also drew from observation from the book ‘The Language of Flowers’ I finished each drawing of flowers in water colour. I took loads of research of the internet to research artists and designers and I also took out some books from the library on flower arranging and floral pattern design. All of this research I creatively documented it in my sketchbook. 

I developed this research by creating four moods boards full of colour and imagery based on different aspects on the topic of flowers including the book I researched. These sheets included floral wallpaper samples, images and different Medias. From these mood boards I created two visual sheets that were full of pattern and colour; I decided I wanted to design contemporary flowers to make my project slightly more quirky. From these sheets I developed three development sheets that took the pattern from my other sheets, by perfecting them even more ready for my final ideas sheets that would show my final piece ideas. This would then be turned into a screen ready for me to screen print this design onto lengths of fabric. I also created two artist/ designer research sheets based on people that most inspired my project. My design was mainly based on one of my artist research sheets William Morris. I decided I wanted to take his style further into my project by making it my own and using more contemporary colours and patterns for my screen. I took the contemporary path throughout my project rather than the traditional path just to show diversity. I also took the designs of my visual and development sheets into my tracing. My sampling was also inspired by the colours of my sheets as well. The research that I found in many floral inspired artists helped me to develop many samples such as felted flowers and knitting which I will take further when doing my final piece. Doing knitting will improve my grade in my weaving unit to get a better overall grade in my FMP. I knew I wanted to show a variety of textile processes in my exhibition by screen printing onto fabric and creating felted and knitting samples that all included flowers on them. I was influenced to go ahead with this from all the variety of processes I looked at from all these different artists and designers plus research that I undertook myself. I admire all the different people that bring there creativeness to young designers such as myself. This led me to wanting to do the same thing and this meant I would create and present a number of textile processes to present in my exhibition. 

All the patterns and colour from my floral research influenced what I was going to produce because I was inspired by the stunning detail that makes up a big part of nature. The only constraint that affected my design was money because I bought some fabric and I ran out of it pretty quick meaning that I couldn't do any trial runs before creating my final piece as the rest of my fabric was used for sampling and my business cards. I was very fortunate as a student because I didn't have anything in my life like a job that took up any of my time meaning I had plenty of time to work on my designs and ideas. Being in the print room was pretty stressful due to space and the amount of people, but as far as my other sampling went such as felting and knitting, I got them out of the way quite early in the project so that I could focus on my printed samples and printed final pieces. 

The only problem solving I encountered was with my screen because some of the tiny detail didn't expose properly so I painted it in myself, also sometimes when I printed my samples the screen was blocked due to the thicker permaset pigment so I had to hand paint some of the detail onto the fabric where the pigment had not gone through. Another problem was that the pigment got through the areas where the emulsion hadn't covered the screen properly leaving a big line on my prints. To solve this I placed masking tape in those areas. I decided that due to time and money I wouldn't be able to produce what I wanted to produce so I decided to go with something easier but still effective that I am happy to continue with. Experimentation that I undertook was pressed flowers, hammered flower prints, heat transfer, wet felting, knitting, weaving, needle felting, lino cut, screen printing, puff binder and batik. My experimentation that I did in the print room was firstly with puff binder but I eventually realised that puff binder doesn't work well on top of permaset pigment. This is because it sits on the fabric rather than soaking into it which is exactly what puff binder does. I didn't really know how to solve this problem other than layering the prints to disguise the mistakes but it didn't really work so I just stopped using puff binder. I wanted to carry on using permaset pigment because it’s darker or lighter in colour (especially for dark fabrics) making it look really effective. So I didn't really have a choice with the puff binder. I experimented on various materials such as calico, cotton, heavy viscose satin and devore velvet. The best result I got was from the calico just because the durability of the fabric was a lot stronger than any other material so I decided to buy two metres of heavy calico. Only problem I had with calico was that it was very hard to dye because it doesn't soak up the procion dye as quickly as cotton would meaning I had to go over it a few times to get the best result. 

If I had no time constraints I would produce a large printed piece of fabric using the same material, but because of time and print room space I didn't think this could have been possible and I would have had extra pressure do get it perfect. I would also make my final pieces very tactile by adding numerous textile techniques onto them like embroidery. Because of time I am making three printed lengths of fabric finished with wet felted flowers sewn onto them. I would have also created some smaller samples to put in frames to sell to the public. If I had plenty of extra time I think I would have experimented more by using techniques such as crochet to make a 3D bunch of flower to put up in my exhibition. However the skills I do have will compliment my final pieces perfectly. I would have done a plain sample as well as coloured samples but I didn't have any more fabric left due to money so I had to stick with the fabric that I had already dyed. Throughout this project I researched many artists and designers but the main one that stood out to me was William Morris for his amazing printed textiles. His work links with my work because he was often influenced by nature on county walks and would often draw from observation and create beautiful designs that are still popular today. William Morris has hugely influenced my work especially my tracings for my final pieces because I like how his designs are more stylised rather than traditional. All the other artists and designers have linked with my work because they all create stunning flowers using either fashion to portray them or more textile processes. Isabella Hoffmann who is a felting artist inspired my wet felted flowers idea because she creates needle felted and wet felted flowers. I decided to make my own for my knitted scarves and eventually my final pieces. 

 On my final piece I will be creating numerous samples all totally different, because I liked more than one of them; I wanted to print these samples onto larger pieces of fabric. I decided I wanted to create windows of printed fabric using shop bought frames to display them in and possibly some lose pieces of fabric to hang up. I’m still not sure of the final intention for my final piece but I guess I will know what to do and how to present them in my exhibition once they are completed. My mind changed quite a lot during this project about my end result but because I liked so many prints I just wanted a variety of final pieces/ samples to display in a creative way. All I need to do is just make the raw materials and then creativity will take place once I've started putting my exhibition up. The processes that I completed throughout this project were: wet felting, knitting, weaving, needle felting, batik, collage, puff binder, screen printing, hammered flowers, pressed flowers, sewing, heat transfer, devore, gouache painting and fine liner. All these processes were really fun to do and all gave totally different results. My favourite of these was hammered flower printing, it gave the appearance of real life painted flowers even though it was the flower petals that were hammered onto paper using there natural petal dye for the paper to soak up (water colour paper was the most effective). Also drying out flowers for my pressed flower booklet was quite effective but difficult to do because it took ages, also the laminator kept getting stuck every time I laminated the pressed flowers. The end results were stunning nevertheless. All my knitting and weaving samples went really well and didn't take long to make. However my screen printing samples went slightly wrong because some of the screen wasn't coated in emulsion and because I was rushing quite a lot I didn't put masking tape over the exposed areas. This meant that some of my samples went slightly wrong but thankfully I managed to improve them by adding different layers to the print. When it comes to my final piece I will take more time to perfect my print my washing my screens regularly and placing masking tape to where it is needed. Only thing I would change is to take better care of my samples by allowing more time on them, but apart from that I think I produced a wide variety of well presented samples. 

I believe I managed my time really well and have produced a lot of work to a good standard. I have helped myself improve my time by creating tasks and goals for each day of the week to keep me on track (time management and diary), I also took advice from peer assessment by creating a questionnaire for my friends about my FMP progress. I believe I have done most of the things I intended to do with plenty of time even though I was a bit lost at the beginning of the project because it was an independent brief. I have learnt to work more independently only asking for help and advice when needed. This also really helped me develop confidence for the rest of my project. I believe I used by blog effectively because I did mini evaluations on each piece of work throughout my project making it easier for my FMP evaluation. It has also given me confidence with my work by showing the public what I can do. Even though due to time I haven’t been blogging throughout my project leaving it to the last few weeks, I still managed to write about all my work just in time for hand in date. Blogging about my work is really useful for my future and I will definitely continue to blog about every piece of work I ever do. 

I am 100% satisfied with my overall project because I have done most things and more that I set out to do. It has stretched my skills and abilities and taught me new things about my creativity that I never knew before. I have loved doing this project because as adults it has given us the freedom to show off our individuality and style in whatever topic we desire. Basing my project on flowers was both amazing and fun because I am so passionate about our surroundings that we most often take for granted. I hope throughout this project I have showed off natures design by taking something that is so extraordinary and putting a creative modern twist on it. 

My strengths were with knitting and felting, I became addicted to these techniques as I have found a love for them which I will continue to do in the future. My weaknesses were screen printing purely because I rushed to get a lot done without concentrating on obvious mistakes that could have been easily avoided. However I think I have a strong screen print design (tracing) and I will definitely take my time when it comes to my final pieces. Only thing that I could have done better to improve this project would be to spend more time on my printed samples to get them to a perfect standard. Apart from that I think I've done everything else to the best of my ability. I have done everything I had set out to do from my proposal such as experimenting with the presentation of flowers in a variety of ways and to make my project really colourful. The only things I struggled doing was embroidery due to the size of the fabric and time keeping, and also needle felting and weaving because I found it really boring and lost interest quite quickly. However I still created two small samples just to show I had tried it. Originally I was going to create loads of needle felted samples but I found that the felt wasn't really securely attached and because I wanted something quite strong and stable for my final pieces I tried making wet felted flowers sewn on to fabric. This technique looked so much more creative and would last. I handled the huge amount of work by setting myself challenges for each week. On some weeks it wouldn't go to plan but I always managed to complete everything for when it was needed. I kept a weekly diary and took some breaks so that I didn't freak out, although some weeks I was more stressed than others. Even though I wished I kept blogging all the way through my project I still managed to evaluate everything before doing my big evaluation which helped a lot. I feel I was more organised in this project because it was totally up to me what I was going to produce. There wasn't a lot of pressure because being an independent project it meant that I was my only competition and the good grades were my goal. 

If I was to do it all again I wouldn't change anything because the amount of work I have produced has shocked me because I didn't think I had it in me to push myself that far. I believe I have produced a really good, well presented project that hopefully the public will appreciate when I have it on display. I am proud of myself and my creative abilities and can 100 % say that this has been a roller coaster of emotions. However I have always managed to pull it out of the bag and produce an excellent project that I am proud of. For my exhibition I will hopefully be making three large printed samples with felted flowers stitched onto them and five small A5 samples to present in frames. I am unsure at the moment how everything will be presented but I definitely want to show my printed baby clothes and my knitting and felted pieces for my display.

Evaluating My Screen Printing Samples...

 

1. Heavy Viscose Satin. In my past experience, printing on top of satin isn't fully visible when using normal pigment. Unfortunately  I didn't realise we had special pigment called permaset which sits on top of the fabric instead of soaking into it. I decided to use puff binder mixed with black pigment ink to create a 3D screen print effect. When I heated the puff binder up the black turned into grey because it goes lighter. This was unintended but it still looks quite good against a soft pearly blue background. 

2. Heavy Viscose Satin. I did the same technique with this sample and again the black turned into a grey colour, unfortunately there was a line running through the image, this is because part of the screen wasn't covered fully in emulsion and I forgot to cover it up using masking tape. However I still think this sample turned out well and the grey looks really effective and contemporary against the fuchsia pink background. I like using heavy viscose satin because when you dye it, it has a beautiful shimmer to it which looks really nice.

3. Cotton. This sample went a bit wrong because I didn't realise that puff binder doesn't really print very well on top of permaset pigment. This meant that the puff binder bubbled up and ruined part of the design. However I really like the colours on this design altogether because the background is quite subtle and compliments the other colours.

                                             
     4. Cotton. This sample is quite strong for the background and again the puff binder bubbled up. The screens didn't really line up correctly but it looked quite effective because the colour came through the other layers. I like the strong turquoise colours against the strong pink background.

5. Cotton. This sample went wrong because I didn't wash my screen straight away meaning excess pigment from the previous print smudged in other areas of the print. The pink didn't print in line with the other screen at all and there was smear marks allover the print from the blue screen. Overall this wasn't a very successful print.

 6. Cotton. I really like this sample because I love the ocean turquoise colour. The blues and pinks are very vibrant and I like how the prints overlap. On this sample some of the pink didn't print properly because the screen had too much pigment on it, therefore I had to hand paint some pink onto the faded areas. Only problem was the pigment dried quite thick.

 7. Heavy Calico. This sample is on plain calico, I like this design because it was very easy to do and the blue stands out against the beige colour. If this was a print on a big piece of fabric repeated it would look effective. The simplicity really stands out because the background doesn't draw your attention away from the actual print.

8. Heavy Calico. This is my least favourite sample because I only used one screen rather than having another colour within the main screen. This print is quite boring in my opinion. If I could do it again I would add another colour within the main screen possibly a contrasting colour to make it stand out.

 9. Cotton. This sample didn't print well at all, the ink smudged quite a bit and the empty spaces need filling. Overall this sample isn't successful because I didn't wash my screens straight away meaning it picked up excess pigment off other pigment colours.

10. Heavy Calico. I quite like this sample because the shades of blue were quite similar in colour meaning it was quite a subtle beautiful sample, but still visible to differentiate between. However the colours don't really fit in with my colour scheme. This sample printed slightly better but I had to hand paint some of the pigment in the faded parts of the design.

11: Medium Calico. This sample is similar to the previous sample but just lighter in colour. This didn't print brilliantly because the screens didn't line up properly and some of the printed colour wasn't sharp enough. As an experimental sample I don't feel it turned out too bad.

12. Cotton. On this sample I completely messed the lining up of the screens but strangely enough it turned out quite good because the messed up screen added more pattern to the print (blue Pigment) sometimes mistakes make the best prints and that is a lesson I have learned from many of my samples but recreating those mistakes isn't so easy.

13. Devore Velvet. This is one of my favourite samples because the pattern shows up beautifully from where the fibers have been burnt away. Once the paste had naturally dried I put it on the heat press for 20 seconds and then I washed away all the fibers revealing the pattern. I then added procion dye to the velvet which looked quite dull at first. I then realised after letting it dry if you put it back on the heat press the colour shows up shimmering and stunning from the vibrancy of colour in the fabric.

14. Devore Velvet. This sample looked really effective with the strong turquoise colour but unfortunately the devore paste went through part of the screen that wasn't coated in emulsion properly meaning it left a big line through the print. However the rest of the design is really pretty.

15. Heavy Calico. This sample was a bit of a disaster at first because the fabric wouldn't flatten properly because of the batik background, so when it came to printing with permaset pigment it smudged quite badly. To resolve this issue I decided to make the background really busy so it was full of pattern. I then decided to print puff binder on top to make a clearer image, however I remembered that puff binder doesn't work well on top of permaset pigment so it bubbled up slightly. The more I look at this larger sample the more I like it, its quite Gothic and stylish at the same time.

16. Heavy Calico. This was just an experimental sample that I ended up liking a lot because it was a layered print consisting of black, blue and pink pigment. However instead of leaving it I decided to add another layer to it by adding turquoise, this slightly ruined it because the patterns on this print were no longer clear.

17. Heavy Calico. This sample was fairly simple to do and looks quite effective. However if I was to do it again I would use permaset pigment pink rather than normal pigment pink because the pink is slightly too bright and the colours look cold and harsh together.

18. Medium Calico. On this sample I really liked the warmness of the colours combined. I like how the blue overlaps the pink bit of the print making it look a navy blue rather than a turquoise colour. The overall effect of this print looks really girly and would look great in a young girls bedroom.

19. Heavy Calico. This sample didn't go very well because the turquoise screen smudged quite a bit. Making the print slightly messy, however I like the combination of colours against the plain background because you can see the detail of the patterns clearly.

20. Medium Calico. This sample I quite liked at first because the colours were really unusual together against a fuchsia pink background. I tried to print another layer of black on top of the other colours but this made it look really messy so I quickly rinsed it under water to get rid of the black and somehow it worked, and I got my original print back. I then heat pressed it after it was dry to secure the colour.

21. Heavy Calico. I like the combination of vibrant colours on this print but again the screen didn't line up properly and the turquoise pigment smudged because I didn't wash my screens often enough. I also had to hand paint parts of the print where it hadn't printed properly Because it gave a faded appearance to the print.

22. Scrap Material. This sample was really easy to print because it was on a really thin scrap piece of yellow cotton. In my previous experiments I've realised that printing on cotton works better than calico because pigment sits on top of the fabric better or soaks into it better. I also really like the black and bright pink on this sample because it stands out strongly.

23. Heavy Calico. I like how the background colour has hints of lilac and baby blue peeping through the black and pink patterns. This background was really easy to do because as soon as I dyed it I washed away the colour straight away. This gave the fabric a hint of soft pastel colours which I really ended up liking.

24. Heavy Calico. The background on this sample is slightly too dark because the pink pigment is quite difficult to see. I should have used permaset pink which would show up really bold on top of the fabric. I also printed the screens completely out of line but strangely it looks quite effective with the subtle colour showing through.

25. Heavy Calico. This sample would be great for a furniture covering because of its subtlety but not as an exhibition piece because the colours are quite dull and too dark. It didn't print very well and I feel it would have looked a lot better if I had a really bright contrasting colour so that some of the detail could stand out better. 

26. Heavy Calico. This is my favourite sample because all the colours together are bright in colour and happy. The shades of orange and yellow give a different appearance all way through the design which looks really nice. The pattern stands out perfectly so I've decided to use this  sample for one of my final pieces but on a larger scale. I will be producing three panels of different printed calico using various dyes, techniques and screens.

More Samples...

This is a brooch I made out of some scrap material. I folded it like a fan and then cut it at the top in  a rounded shape to create numerous petal shapes still attached, I then gathered the material by inserting thread and a needle and pulled through it tightly. I then arranged the petals into a rounded flower and stitched it into place to secure it. I finished it of with a button in the middle and a safety pin for the back. Health and Safety: Be careful when handling sharp objects such as needles and scissors as it can cause cuts and punctures. I liked making this brooch but it took quite a long time to do and it was slightly tricky to secure it with thread, however it looks quite nice as a small floral inspired sample.

This is a peg loom weave. I'm not a fan of this technique because it takes ages to complete, that is why I kept it quite a small sample. I did this sample to add to my variety of textile technique samples to show off my diversity in art. The colours I chose complimented each other nicely but didn't really fit in with my floral theme.

Screen Printing ...

Before Screen Printing I dyed samples of fabrics in various colours of procion dyes. Once dry I pressed the fabric for 20 seconds to set the colour at 180 degrees on the heat press. I then rinsed out the fabric to get rid of the chemicals and excess dye. Finally I let them dry so that they were ready to screen print onto. Health and Safety: Be careful when handling the machine as the machine is very hot. 

On some backgrounds I used batik which is melted wax to create flower shapes. This is a very effective technique but it doesn't work as well with printed pigment on it. Once the wax has dried and you have added colour to the fabric, it will act as a resist technique so you need to iron off the wax revealing the finished pattern. Health and Safety: be careful when handling the tools in the hot wax, can cause burns if drips on skin.

I mixed most of my pigment inks and procions dyes to create the colours I wanted. I had 3 separate screens, 1 large and 2 small screens. Mixing the pigment to the desired colour is a very easy process, I dropped a couple of pigment ink drops into pigment paste and mixed thoroughly. I used a squeegee to drag the pigment through the screen when screen printing.

I dabbed some of my mixed pigment onto the top of the image using a stick, I placed my fabric underneath the screen and secured  it onto the table with masking tape. On some screens there was two parts to it meaning I had to line them up correctly to get two colours.

I got my squeegee and dragged down the pigment firmly a couple of times making sure the fabric was properly printed on. Unfortunately my screens didn't line up correctly but somehow it looked quite effective. Once I finished screen printing I sponged down my screen and washed it using a water jet. I then placed it in the drying cupboard. Be careful when screen printing with pigment because it can block after 5 prints. When using puff binder it can block after 2 prints. Finally permaset pigment can block after 1 print because if kept in warm temperatures it can bake onto the screen as it is very thick. Once the fabric and print has dried you put it back onto the heat press for 20 seconds at 180 degrees to set the colour. Puff binder cannot be washed or heat pressed as it will effect the design. Health and safety: wear gloves and apron to avoid staining of clothes and skin, also protects you from harmful chemicals.

Pigment: is a paste that soaks into fabric to create a pattern from your screen when screen printing.
Permaset: is a pigment that sits on top of the fabric, mainly used for darker fabrics. (quite thick and shows up better.)
Puff binder: a paste that puffs up when heat is applied ( can be hand painted on on screen printed on, if too thick it can bubble up and burn.)

Health and safety : using a heat gun for puff binder can be dangerous because it is very hot, keep hands out of the way when directing heat towards the fabric.

Hammered Flower Samples...

Hammered flower print on calico using purple and yellow flowers. Darker flowers work better as the colour is more vibrant. The best floral design you could get is by using the flower itself directly onto paper or fabric.

Different shades of flowers hammered on calico. This looks really pretty because there are different shades of purple on this sample. Remember to use pale fabrics so that the flower shows up clearly.

Hammered flower and leaf print on water colour paper finished of with a pink water coloured vase. I like this print because I tried to create the image of a vase of flowers. This worked really well and took less time than if I was going to paint it, its such an easy, effective technique that I'm glad I've discovered. 

This print is done on water colour paper finished with hammered flower prints and a blue water colour vase. I also hand painted the stems on to make it more realistic. I really like this print because the flowers are very bright and strong in colour, the harder you hammer the flowers the better the print.

Hammered Flowers Experimentation Samples...

Recently I discovered an amazing print technique by using actual flowers to print a picture. I used water colour textured paper for the best results. I also used calico and cotton fabric to print onto. The paper picks up the natural dye of the flower head when pressure is applied revealing the same colour and texture from the actual flower head. It looks so realistic that it looks like it has been hand painted using water colours. This was really fun to do as it produces stunning pictures but its very loud to do so pick your timing correctly. Here are the steps to this wonderful technique!

Step 1: Take a flower head and cut off the stem. Make sure the flower isn't too wet as this can affect the print.

Step 2: Place the flower head onto either fabric or card (water colour paper works best.)

Step 3: Place a couple of pieces of kitchen roll over the flower to absorb any excess moisture and dye. Then begin to hammer the flower firmly till the dye comes through the tissue. Be careful when using the hammer as it can be dangerous when used with force.

Step 4: Peel away the kitchen roll and gently peel away the remaining flower head. This can be done easier with tweezers to peel away the petals if it gets stuck to the fabric.

Here is the finished result on calico.

Pressed Flowers Experimentation Samples...

As part of my research I wanted to include real flowers in my exhibition but because they would eventually go off I decided to dry them out by putting them in between two wooden blocks for a few months. I put tissue and card in between the blocks to absorb the moisture from the flowers. One dried the flowers had many different patterns and textures. They became dull in colour because they had dried out but this made them look even more effective. To display my dried flower experimentation I decided to laminate them all. I laminated them onto card and some just clear. This was quite tricky to do because some of the flowers were too thick and became jammed when laminating. I had many unplanned trial runs but eventually I got a good selection of laminated flowers that will be displayed in booklet form for the public to view at my exhibition. I also took inspiration for my sheet work by looking at the detail on the flowers. Here are some of the results!
