work in progress
This is an example of how I use Paint Shop Pro as a design tool.
Image number one is an original mono print using acrylic paint on to calico.
Image two is the first manipulation, which involved layering on top of photographs and manipulating the image using the effects tool.
The background is a refinement of these two images using further photographs and textile backgrounds and the displacement map tool.
This simple process will give me a great many ideas to work on which will hopefully lead to a full textile piece.
I have gradually come to use this work process over time and find it most usefull, although I have to start with a sketch and develop the idea in stitch.
