Right now I currently have completed two processes. The gel medium took me a week to do because of all they layering and drying. During that time when i was waiting for the gel medium to dry, I made a tote out of canvas. I wanted the gel medium to be put as the main graphic because of how iconic the CN Tower is.
For screen printing I chose a picture of a pigeon because of how contrasting it is. For the colours I chose purple and white to make a cloudy effect that relates to the bird.
I chose my t-shirt to be marketable because of it's simplicity and how easily it is to be duplicated. Another reason why I chose to duplicate the t-shirt is because of how fashionable graphic tees are this year.
My last process was photogram. My first idea was to have two people holding an umbrella under the rain. I planned to use a drawing of a girl and a boy holding an umbrella together. I would have cotton balls/strips as the clouds and water droplets as rain. When I went to gather all the materials, I could only find a little bit of cotton so I used some tissue paper as the body of the cloud and the cotton balls as wisps. On some parts of the tissue paper I had it folded up so that they would have a less or more lights go through. I cut out a picture of a girl holing an umbrella from paper. For the ground I ripped construction paper to create a soft snowy texture to relate to the water droplets that ended up looking like snow. I used a doily to create a bush to add more texture to the photo. To make sure my elements stayed in place I used the glass to hold down everything. To have a good distribution of small water droplets across the entire photo I used a see through piece of plastic sheet so I could bounce the water around. This was my first attempt at the photogram and on the second try it turned out worse because you could see all the scratches on the glass that I used to hold everything down together.
