Space Prints.

As I've been doing so much painting recently, and spending most of the time on one type of material, I thought I'd experiment with other types of fabric to see how the paint takes. I've made these prints which have a kind of 'space' theme. My whole project so far has taken this fantasy/surrealist ideology so I kept that in mind and made some cool prints!

I'm also utilising this idea of sustainability in fashion by encouraging reinvention of existing fashions. If you're bored of that tacky denim skirt in the back of your wardrobe, don't throw it out, paint on it and create something you can treasure! Plus no one else will have it, a complete one off ;)

These below were painted onto dark greyish scraps of denim. It was just an experiment before I actually paint onto a skirt or something. It's always good if you have scraps of material to test out an idea that you have, that way there's room for mistakes!






Which one's your favourite?!
