I ordered a book a while back (Mastering the Art of Fabric Printing and Design (So at some point I am hoping I reach master level)) hehe
Anyways, where was I...oh yes! I finally got my hands on my new book last night and it inspired me! This was a blessing in itself because all day yesterday I was really needing some inspiration.
So I ended up deciding I would experiment with the Inkodye my parents gave me for my birthday. :) I have been wanting to do something with it, badly.
So after some research (like 5 minutes, but it sounds nice), I found a way to use the Inkodye using glass and a dry erase marker!
The idea: Draw or in my case doodle on a piece of glass.
Then cover the fabric with the Inkodye.
Lay the piece of glass on top of the fabric.
Find nearest sunlight.
Insert.
The Inkodye is clear right out of the bottle.
As soon as it sees sunlight it starts to change.
It's really quiet amazing to watch the color appear automatically.
I was pretty excited about the end product.
I know a few things now to make it better, but overall....I feel encouraged and inspired to try more.
The brush strokes from where I applied the Inkodye takes away from the lines I drew.
Had I covered the whole glass with the random circles it would have been really neat.
Although I kinda like the random brush strokes from where I applied the gel.
Can't wait to try this again and make it even better!
Hope your day is beautiful!
I am off to get ready for work...
Smile :)
P.S. It's hump day!
