working with colour

Using photoshop i am experimenting with colour, which ones sit well together, which ones "vibrate" when next to each other.

looking something like finished (almost)

Now i have all of the finalised drawings, and have chosen quotes for my local celebrities, i am using photoshop to get a better idea of the finished drawing sheet. Here is the outcome;

Elton John in print

In the printroom we are doing colour seperation. We were asked to find one of our images to use for this task, so i looked back at my "The Future" newspaper that i made for our 2nd year '55 and a half' practice exhibition. In the newspaper i had several drawings that were compatible for the screenprinting techniques. We photocopied the images to blow them up to a size closer to what they would turn out like, and decided between Simon Cowell, Elton John, Prince Philip and a burger!! Elton was chosen, because of the line qualities, it's size, it's recognizablity and the humour it holds. These images show the stages i went through, getting from the black line- to the full colour version.

More Ink Drawings

Photoshop work 3

The remainder of my work...

Some of these work, and some of them do not, I am clearly able to see the differnece between the two, and i think that this is beacuse i have been looking more at other working artists, Paul Thurlby in particular.

Here is some of Paul Thurlby's screen printwork;
