Photo editing software Portait Challenge PART 2
PART 2
You have to take the image you created and turn it into a REAL life Artwork. YEP that is right! Get your paint brushes out. You can do whatever you want, If you don't want to paint the entire image, you might want to take a section of the original digital image and create an abstract from it.
Here is my example:
Digital image on the left and then i have recreated it using oil pastels on the right!See what you come up with ;) Be creative!!

Yikes! was my first thought. Perspective is one mind-boggling thing to me. With all the wonderful perfect spikes the computer made - how to translate that into something I could manage??? So I went to the age-old process of squinting at my computer-made portrait standing a few feet away. Aha - dots!
I started out so controlled, tiny little dots - about three hours worth and I didn't like it. So I put on a movie and reached for my large tip markers and went wild - any dot any where - in no particular order. I loved the process - but still I think I made myself prettier than I really am - sigh. Enjoy!

I meant to say that this doesn't look like a real portrait to me (the pretty remark above). I am happy with the way I look - all wise and old (not that person above that only has dots and no wrinkles) - this person in the dots is smiling, so in that way, we complete each other.

So once i have my image printed onto transparency film, I take my Ezscreen silk screen which has been coated in light sensitive emulsion (These sheets come pre-coated so they are ready to use). Place it onto a black board, then place the transparency image on top (this part needs to be done in a dark room with no direct sunlight). I take it outside and expose it for 1 minute and 40 seconds (but time varies depending on time of day and strength of sunlight). After i have exposed the image i place it into a tub of water for around 5 - 8 minutes. Then i rinse the screen out under fast running water until the unexposed area (the black) washes away. I then expose the screen to the sun for a further 20mins to completely harden the light sensitive emulsion.
And this is the completed screen ready for printing. I simply use an old credit card to spread the ink over the screen making sure i do one complete full stroke across the screen (holding the credit card at a 45 degree angle). I immediately wash the screen out under fast flowing water and pat dry. I use fabric screen printing ink which washes out in water (which makes the process easy).
I love this product, their website is http://ezscreenprint.com/ (for full instructions and details on how to purchase this awesome product).
